Thanks to your financial contributions Rebuilders purchased the brick, sand, mortar and paid for local national labor in Garagoa, Colombia for the walls of this church. The team from Beech Springs Church provided a medical clinic everyday of the trip and much needed construction labor. They also purchased electrical wiring and lighting. Mike and Naomi Lawrence have been the host for all of our numerous trips to Colombia.

We were privileged to participate in a trio to Honduras. Rebuilders contributed to the project funds on the addition for Eduardo and the pastors house.
The picture of the young man hanging out of the window is of Eduardo. He is 21 years old and confined to the room he is in. His mother fell when she was pregnant and he was born mentally damaged. His room was 5’X8’ and only had a twin bed in it. The unpainted section is his new space. He will have a bathroom with shower and 8 times the room.
Second picture is of the pastors house we built. He can now bring his wife and child over from the mainland. Rebuilders paid for the roof framing and tin for Eduardo. Also paid for tile and water closets for both projects.
The third picture is of a swing set built for a school. Also put solar panels and lights in building (has no electricity) We partitioned the bathroom and installed water closets so the kids have a boys and girls bathroom. The teacher volunteers, no pay.

As you know Calvary Church is remodeling its new building. We don’t get a lot of chances to do a project in our back yard so this will be a special opportunity for us. Cory Kanagy and Jeremy Greer will each head up a team for framing help on Tuesday and Thursday evenings soon. If you could help them one of the nights or more please let us know. Thank you very much as always for being faithful to help out.

Okay, we have a trip to Soldotna, Alaska leaving on Friday May 8 from Greenville Airport, and returning to Greenville on Sunday May 17. Our job task will be carpentry finishing work on a church we have been working on for awhile now from the ground up. This will consist of mostly setting interior doors, running baseboards, trimming windows, possibly some tile, or the carpet tiles, and whatever we can be of the most help with. A second project will be at the camp we will be staying in. If weather is good we will be painting the exterior of one of the buildings, if not there will be some odd and end things we can do. There is also a trailer house on the property that needs a new roof. This may become priority..
Trip cost is $1,600.00 this will pay for our plane ticket, food while at camp, lodging, project money, gas, train rides, and the half a day cruise. Each person will be responsible for their own eats while traveling, and of course any souvenirs or anything like that they may want. We need a deposit ASAP. We already have over half of the 15 available seats filled.
