Day 4 - 4/12/12
We had another great start to our day. Bob led us in a 45 minute Bible study to kick things off. Then we headed to our job site. At the work site, one team filled the front porch with coral rock (they went up into the woods with a pry bar and sledge hammer to dig out the rock) while another team finished the rafters and roof prep. Today more rain came at 2:30 p.m. After waiting for 30 minutes there was a little let up in it's intensity. With only one day left to work we worked the last 2 hours in the rain. During that time our team was able to experience a Jamaican's concrete mixer (you grab buckets to get sand and gravel then add concrete and water...the mixing happens as you take shovels and mix these 4 ingredients together on the ground until ready to put the mixture in buckets and create a line to swing the buckets to their destination). After a delicious meal of rice, cabbage and carrots, and curried mutton, Bob taught during the worship time with the students. Before lights were out at 10:00 p.m. Mello and Richard (2 previous students in the program and now staff members) shared their stories. In the morning we are going to get a jump on the day and depart for our job site at 6:30 a.m.
Please pray we have a safe and dry day!
