Below is an update from Garry and Ethan. Thanks, Rea! You've been so great to share your messages with us. And thanks to Garry keeping in touch. Pray for the team for a good night's rest and for strength tomorrow as the work continues and they begin saying their goodbye's.
The team finished earlier than usual - Garry said Ethan were shopping (the first I had heard about the shops in the hotel), Ethan traded his shirt for something today, Garry traded his hat for something yesterday.... While we were talking, Ethan was anxious to go bargain for other items. This is new to Ethan and he said he was enjoying it and now he was the advisor. :) Garry was also asked to trade his shirt and pants but he stopped at the hat. He was concerned about how he'd make it back to his room......
3rd Work Day: The crew finished the room that was started and also 1/2 of another room. Today an older man came to the school, Garry had never seen him before, he really liked what he saw and said this is truly a blessing from God.
Tomorrow (last work day) the team will finish the other 1/2 of the room - that will be a total of 4 rooms completed. The Kenya folks will have to finish the last 2 rooms. Andrew (the 410 Bridge District leader) said he was very happy to have this much completed, he didn't expect to finish more than 2 rooms.
Garry said on the last work day each Kenya child/adult will get with a team member to plant a tree together in rememberance of this special time together. The child or adult will be responsible for caring for the tree and perhaps the team member will return to see it someday.
Garry also said that your prayers for those who were feeling sick were working!
More updates tomorrow.....Rea
