Mid-May Progress

Thank you so much for your continued prayers! God is so good–much has been accomplished so far this month!

All the stonework is up, (PRAISE THE LORD!!!) so now we are cleaning the stones that got messed up in the process and fortifying some gaps with extra mortar. Please pray for us as we continue this process, and as the flooring gets finished up. We hope to have electricity and plumbing soon, as well.

We are expecting the excavators soon to finish up with grading, so hopefully we can begin landscaping and get the parking lot done. Please continue to pray for safety for our volunteers and professional workers, good weather, and His continued providence! Thank you so much!
