Been Busy... Hardin Arrives Tomorrow!

Hey sorry for not getting around to this the past couple of day but we have been very busy getting things prepped for the Hardin Baptist's team out of Murray, Kentucky arrival on Saturday night. This is going to be a very exciting next two weeks with A LOT of projects to do.

Hardin will be doing the biggest project of their trips here at a local school. They as a church have really poured into this school the last few years. Their teams are full of teenagers each year and they accomplish a lot! The big project for this year is building a 132 foot wall for the school. The school is completely surrounded by walls except for this final section which is only fenced in.

We have been running around Managua the last few days gathering all the wood, sand, stone, posts, gravel, and more to have at the school before the team arrives, so they can get to work and not wait on materials. It was awesome to watch truck after truck roll in the school yesterday knowing it is going to help build a wall and give more security to the teachers, principals and more importantly the students there.

Also another project that Hardin is going to be doing this week is giving every student at the school a new school uniform. Every student will receive a shirt, pants or skirt depending on sex, and a pair of shoes. This is excited and a neat idea that I am sure all 800 of the students will enjoy. Especially the poorer kids that can not always afford a full uniform set.

Today, we are heading to the grocery stores to load up on food for the 20 person team coming tomorrow night. I am excited to get the house full again and get to work with the team.

Please be praying for safe travels for the team tomorrow and also for energy as we will be doing a lot of tough work for the next two weeks.

Have a great day! God bless!
