Monday Jan 24, 2011

It was a great week. The WEAG team was exactly what we needed. There were guys on the team that worked on plumbing the new fuel tanks and the fuel tanker we have for storing extra fuel on property. The others worked on laying block for the new building that contains the two 3,000 tanks. ...YES...even the women laid block. The building they were working on is near the main gate to our property. The security people at the gate were shocked to see ladies laying block. Later in the week they told Chris that "this was very good". Interesting how different cultures view working situations.
Samaritan's purse changed out their country coordinator this week. Judd Johnson and his wife Peg will be here overseeing the ministry. They arrived from Ecuador. We enjoyed sharing a night of food and fellowship with them, John Freyler from SP's main office and Betsy Hall...deputy country coordinator. We will be praying for Matt Ellington and his family as they take on other responsibilities at the home office of SP.
Saturday night we had 3 men overnight and then 10 for Sunday night from Global Compassion. This group is working in the northwest and trying to work two teams for two weeks. They will come back again for Wed. and Thursday night. We have another guest house team of 11 men arriving from VA on Wed along with 5 people for GO. Four of these guys are coming to help David switch out our 60KW generators for 100KW generators. They are having to rewire the entire generator house. Pray for all involved as this will take lots of coordination in trying to keep all buildings functioning as they make the change over. Joyce Scott is coming with her husband Paul and she will help cook for all these hungry men.
