6 Houses Complete

The good news so far this week is that there are now 6 houses completed. If I remeber the numbers correctly, there are two houses with the floor ready to be laid. Two more houses are ready for the foundation to be put in. The final two houses have not been started.

One of the hardest things for the families we build houses for, is that before construction can begin, their old home has to be torn down. This also means that the family needs to find somewhere to go while the new house is being built. We have one family who really has no where to go once we tear down their old house. They will have no where to sit during the day, and no where to sleep at night. This family is one of the homes that has not been started. All of the other families had already torn down their old house and were staying with friends, or in a smaller room on their property.

Please pray for this family, that they find shelter during the days that we are putting up their new home. Pray that we would have the compassion and understanding that is needed for this family. Also pray for the safety of the team, that even as we hurry to build these houses, that our priority would be safety, not speed.
