As promised, here's the 3 of 3 updates.
However, I currently have not packet and am supposed to be leaving for the week in about 20min. So this will be a quick bullet point of what we're doing for spring break and how you can pray:
house where Tina Wilson and 3 of her 4 daughters live.
Mission: show love to a navajo family of 5 living in a 11x11 house (no electric or water), by turning this existing house into a kitchen and building for them a 22x22ft house with electricity and an outhouse. We have 6 half days to work on the house and though I think we'll finish, it'll definitely be close.
Pray:
- For safety. Last night the generous people at Home Depot filled a 24ft Truck with enough cement and stucco and dry wall, etc. Enough to load down the truck to a level where the mudflaps dragged on the road by a good 3-4". So after all the materials were spread around to the other cars things seem to be working a bit better. Also, one car got in a minor accident while leaving town. Thankfully no one was hurt.
- For Fellowship: It would be really neat to see God give us a sweet family spirit this trip. There's been a lot of hard work put into this trip from the staff and from many students. It would be great to see their work and prayers rewarded.
- That'd we'd be a blessing to the reservation: I think of 1 Cor 3 (i believe...?) where it talks about us giving off the aroma of Christ. We'd love to bless them any way we can. It's already been cool to see several students give extra money to help the family, or even sell some of their things in order to have money to give.
Thanks again!
Ryan
