Raising the Roof!

We have been able to raise the roof in Mexico on all but one of our build homes. The third home should have the roof up today and as it was the brick house....it has taken a bit longer to get the sides up to the point of being able to accept the wooden roof. So today....Wednesday, March 18....we will be able to bring our two wooden homes right up to the edge of completion. God has been very good as we've had only a few slight wounds and that was mostly from climbing a mountain and then doing our own version of "how much air time can we make" and still land on our feet. We have had great worship times with the Mexician church here and I don't think I'll have to say that it's a bit more lively than we might have at McDermot.
I have stated many times that Life is best lived in the centre of God's Will. It is the safest place to live and it is the place where we will experience the greatest blessing and peace from the Father of us all. During our trip, we are all aware of our unique opportunity to be in Mexico and the great joy it is to serve others with a new home. The lady where we are building, came into the structure yesterday and you should have seen her face as she was looking around and showing the rest of her family the new home. I know when we turn over the keys....it will be a great adventure.
Thank you for praying church, and I look forward to sharing the joy of this experience with you.
Blessings amigos,
Pastor Brian
