Blessings

The internet has been down for a couple of days so we have been unable to post any news. The team has finished 8 houses in the last two days and we will complete the other three tomorrow. It has been such an amazing time working alongside the locals the last few days. We have shared laughs as we build, do pedicures, play with the children and eat lunch together. What incredible blessings we experience as we serve here. The people of El Salvador teach me so much in life. Things like trusting God with everything. Laughing in spite of living in horrific conditions and supporting one another  in their community. I think we are too self reliant in Canada. We think we can do life on our own. So much so that we don't feel we have to rely on God or each other. The people here seek God's face every day for their daily needs. They have too!

Tomorrow is another day.....another day to serve, learn and share all the blessings of God as we work together.
