Construction Project and Prayer Seminar





During the first week of February we joined forces with a group from Canada to help with the construction of a health clinic in San Pablo La Laguna. We began work at 3 a.m. on Sunday morning and finished pouring the roof at 3 p.m. Over 40 men from the community and church came out to help. The clinic will be completed in the next couple of months and will meet a great need for better health care in San Pablo. We also constructed a home for a family of 7. Their small two room adobe style home was replaced with a block home that will be much more comfortable for them. We made a triple bunk bed so the 4 boys will have a bed with a mattress instead of a board or the ground to sleep on.
On February 14 we hosted a seminar on prayer at Higher Grounds Coffee House which was attended by 45 people. It was a great day of learning and practical application on prayer and worship. Our desire is to use the coffee house meeting room to be a place of regularly scheduled prayer as well as personal prayer throughout the week.
