Special thanks from Doctor Richard Sadler of Mission Link International for your support of the 2010 PCC Ingathering Offering. Knowing that over $10,000 in support is "on the way" has enabled the project leaders to move forward with deliberation and speed (Ugandan speed of course).
A new network of steel reinforced concrete beams, shown in this photo, has been poured. While the concrete is curing, bricks will be used to fill in the spaces and enclose the exterior walls. After this the roof rafters we built last summer will be installed with the roofing finally being added.
Note in this photo that all of the concrete used is patiently mixed, batch by batch, in a concrete mixer. Two years ago my grandson, Matthew, spent the entire week mixing concrete on a slab of concrete with a hoe.
One of the neat unintended consequences of all of this relates to Pastor Philip, who we spent much of last June with. Shortly after we left Philip was hired in a position of leadership on this project during the week. We also worshipped at Pastor Philip's church, the one with a partial roof.
In his usual selfless manner, Philip has used much of the proceeds from his work at Lubas to put a complete new roof on Namulesa Evangel church. No windows and doors though, in the typical rural Ugandan fashion. I have no idea what they do during the two, 3 month rainy seasons in Uganda? Please pray for safety for the workers as both projects continue.
Please prayerfully consider joining us next June 2011 as we return to Uganda to work with these fine brothers and sisters in Christ.
Thank You,
David Hoselton
