Adventist Church in Nergue Anna (a section of Bere like a "suburb"). The
location is within a five-minute walk of our compound and is well
placed, surrounded by population. A big tree near the church will also
serve as a nice shade shelter under which to do Sabbath School programs
for the kids.
Construction began Monday. Because of the intense heat and sun mid-day,
we decided to break the work up into three half-days: foundation, main
structure, and roofing. People are amazed when they walk by and see a
church structure where there was only a rough field a few days before.
We thank God for the blessing of safety during the construction. And for
the mangoes that gave us energy as we worked.
The days have been hot, about 105 degrees in the shade in the house. Out
in the sun, it is considerably hotter than that, especially when
roofing. But our crew worked well and happily together. Pierre is
especially happy.
I'll try get some pictures and post them soon. Brick walls should start
next week. Matthew is working on getting some benches ordered.
