Day 4: stucco and a house blessing!

Today began with morning prayers and breakfast. After loading the pickup truck with trowels, sand, buckets and wheelbarrows we set off for the last time to the worksite. It took the whole morning to get the house nicely coated with stucco. And after lunch, the only word I can use to describe the house blessing is--beautiful. The eyes of the mom and her two kids, who had been there all week and had watched us build their house for them, shown with such love, humility and gratitude that I cannot put into words their effect on us. Truly every one of us were impacted and recieved more than we gave by the grace of Christ who shown through this family. May God grant them many years!
