We are currently in rainy season but have yet to experience much of it. It has been a blessing in some ways as the rain that we have had revealed to us that the roof to the volunteer apartment project leaks. Learning this, immediate action has been taken to get a company in to fix the roof and add the necessary trim to finish it.
Also, a learn as you go, the design of the apartments did not take into consideration the auditorium roof which meant the middle unit would only get outside lighting on the one end which also has an overhang. Learning this, decisions were made to install skylights in the kitchen of that apartment before they repoured a new roof. It makes a tremendous difference.
We have 3 teams coming in August so Ira has been very busy getting things to a point so they can work efficiently while here. There will be an electrician on the team. He and another member will stay a few days longer that the rest of the team to get as much, if not all of the wiring finished. This is very instrumental to proceed with the rest of the work that needs to be done since we can only work on them as finances allow so when teams come, it helps to really make progress in these projects.
The flooding that we do get from the rain is also an ongoing issue. When they built the new road, it changed the entrance which changed the direction of the previous preventatives. So more ditches have been dug and more pipes for drainage installed. As the saying goes...you gotta go withe the flow and things are always changing.
The Levi Youth group and leaders continue to work very hard in their preparations for Summer Bible Camp which starts next week. We continue to be blessed when we see what God is doing in and through the lives of those involved in the Ministry here. Please pray that many will be reached with the message from the Bible Camp as the local communities have been invited to attend.
