Day 4











Sorry everyone buy todays post is very short. Julie had written an awesome post but Chris G decided to play with the computer transformer and lost all of Julie's hard work. After offering to re write the post he logged on to the wrong blogspot full of inappropriate photos, we had to go back to the campsite and organise Pastor Keith to deal with him. The important news is that we are all well and working hard.

God Bless

A sample of Julie's work

We awoke this morning to the sounds of 80 kids getting together to start the day of the vacation Bible school. This was before 5.30am!! So, full of enthusiasm, we quickly devoured our delicious srambled eggs for brekkie then got stuck into the day's work. Keith was seconded to help with the singing with all the kids, then was further elected to help with cutting down the posts on a verandah to enable some kind of safety barrier to be erected. The rest of the workers quickly settled in to a very full and active day of building internal walls. Mindful of telephone and electrical conduits, overhead slops (colouring Margaret & Julie's hair nicely with concrete), many other co-builders legs (and the rest of their bodies!), string (demarking the next course of bricks), buckets of 'mud'

Keep up the good work and the antics :) You are doing a fantastic job and we are keeping you in prayer and checking on you daily. Maybe anyone else who meddles with computers can be made to build a wall by his/herself, or look after the 80 kids at 5.30am!!!
I'm especially praying for the girls on the team and can't wait to get there myself.
Thanks for the picture of Barney, it made me smile to see the joy a bear can bring with him. Bless you all in all that you do.

I hope Marg and Julie are enjoying their new found concrete hair colour and have been willing to pay the appropriate person/people for giving them such a modern hair style at no cost to themselves ;-)

Keep up the good work guys we are praying that your enthusiasm levels will continue to be high as the trip continues. God bless you all as you continue this work for him.
