What Lasts

Dennis and I have been told that the Galvaneesa houses should last 40 years. They are made of medal and have steel posts so there is nothing on them that can be eaten by turmites or wood that can rot. These families have been given such a blessing from God in having a house provided to them. I know there there is a greater blessing that we are giving and receiving from the people in the village. That is the blessing of friendship. As we are building the houses, praying with the local people or making a craft with the children we are building relationships. Relationships that last long after the houses have crumbled. Sharing the love of Jesus Christ and the free gift of salvation with the amazing people of El Salvador is what we came here for. This is a free gift that they can recieve and no one can take away nor can it ever be destroyed. This is what lasts. This is what goes into eternity. Relationships!
