A Great Day!

We spent our entire day in the Valley of the Angels today. Dr. Sain, Stacy, Lorin, and Emily hosted a medical clinic along with Carlos' sister with is also a Doctor. This group was waiting on us when we arrived at the school to set up for the clinic.

I think the final count was 164 patients seen - a very successful clinic!

Ricky, Ray, Leroy, Carlos, Lenin, and I headed to the building Site after we got the clinic set up. The site was in very good shape of we were able to get right to work.

We were blessed with perfect weather so the work progressed very quickly.  This is the new homeowner, Jorge who worked with us all day.

Walls were up by lunch, which by the way was the highlight of the day.  Jorge's wife made us bean soup with rice and fresh tortillas for lunch and invited us in to eat at her table.

We spent the afternoon putting the finishing touches on the walls and putting the roof on while Jorge and Lenin mixed concrete to put around the posts.

Looking forward to pouring the floor and wiring it tomorrow. It was truly a great day. You can imagine how rewarding it is to build such a nice house for a young family that is living inside of mud walls.  I like to think that just a little time invested here will pay dividends for many, many years to come for those which we are privileged to help.
