Appointed to Build


Construction continues on casa number three at a steady pace and brings promises to another group of abandoned children when completed sometime around the first of the year. As the third building emerges, it is exciting to see more clearly the design of the entire complex or hacienda. When the final casa and corner apartment is complete, then the two playgrounds will be finished and the center courtyard will be constructed. The finished hacienda will be a beautiful group of structures providing a small village of great activity (like these boys shelling peas).


The most beautiful aspect of the completed project will be the 40 or so children and groups of caregivers who live there. It is a vision I see many times as I walk around the site working with the construction crew. It is exciting to read in the Old Testament how God gave many construction jobs to His people that clearly intended to fill future needs (i.e. the huge ark, the massive temple, etc.). Our responsibility to Him is the same as was theirs …to see the job complete! That is my motivation on site here as well as you who are reading this …as God’s financial allies. God will be faithful in sending those He chooses to labor in His work here as He was in all those O.T. examples. He blesses us richly in His master plan to help those who are helpless. Please pray with excitement that God will help us help Him each day to accomplish all He has put into our hearts to do!
