Just Like Christmas in April

The team from Calvary has moved on to brick work for now. They are building these half walls on top of the cement pads that they poured earlier in the week. These rooms will be some sort of sunroom, that get used for the kids playing, doing their homework and eating supper.

As many of you may have heard, we had a theft of some of our power tools this past Christmas season. The thieves cut a hole in the roof of our shop and took the tools. Many people prayed that money for new tools would be provided and also have given ideas for improving security. Today we went tool shopping to buy some tools that we need to continue the work of this team. Many churches and individuals have donated this money so that we can build these homes. We have also installed a security system in the shop and will be building a lockbox to store the tools in. Please continue to pray that funds will be provided for better security at the Juniper Tree, things like raising the wall higher, more lighting and better door lock systems are needed.

Today we were also supposed to pick up our wood order for the tops of the sunrooms, but it was not ready when we called. Upon passing the wood yard on the way home I saw that they had our 4x4's cut and were working on the the rest of the order. I will pick this up tomorrow and we will begin the next stage of the project on Monday. Today we also bought 2 more lights for the sports court and next week we will install them so that the kids can play after dark.
