Wednesday, August 10th, we saw many things accomplished. First, workers diligently finished building a wall of harvested sticks to keep the lodo (mud) on the property.
Secondly, we had materials delivered at the end of the road for the building of a bodega (storage shed). By experience, we knew the road would not be able to hold the weight of the truck. Regardless the driver decided to try anyway; the truck got stuck! Struggling to get the truck out for several minutes, we saw the heart of the Belizeans as workers from across the street quickly came to assist our volunteers when they heard the spinning of tires.
After a few loads back and forth from the main road to the property, we were able to successfully stack the materials at the building site. In the process, our Belizean draftsman called and informed us that the building plans for the school building had been approved! We now have to pay to get our license then the building for the schoolroom can begin! This building will serve many functions until the campus is completed.
By late morning we started on the bodega (storage shed); by early afternoon the framing for the floor was squared up, and the flooring was almost complete.
We ended the day with a word study of the Bible with our fellow Belizean brother. What a day!
God comes through again somehow causing the people and events to all come together, pulling off another great victory even when things seem to be "heading south." Praise God!
