Temporary Church/Shelter Up!

Greetings from Bon Repos, Haiti!

This will be a short post by Josh as will be posting about our day later. However, we have a few pictures that we'd love to share with you all. We had a successful day culminating with the completion of the Church & shelter for the children. Everyone was pleased as we will be able to utilize it for Church service tomorrow. We also mounted the cross salvaged from the previous Church/orphanage and it is now firmly cemented in place on the corner of the existing school building next to the shelter we constructed. Enough with the typing, on with the pictures!

This first picture shows the process of building the trusses. We demonstrated to the Haitian workers and then let them at it!

Viola! Completed. The salvaged cross can be seen in the upper left in its new home!
