The last couple of weeks Pan de Vida was bleesed to have some individual volunteers come and serve. The 1st week was a couple from Alberta, Ron and Jackie. They had been to Pan de Vida several times before with the last time being 7 years ago when the boys dorm had been built. While they were here, they built door frames and the doors themselves for Justo and Elia's apartment. They were able to get them stained and installed in their short time here. It was a real blessing for us to meet them and have fellowship. I love the way God connects us.
The other group consisted of 5 men from Manitoba. (Glen, Doug, Bob, Jack and Ron) The majority of them have been coming every year with larger teams for about 10 years and there was also one member for which it was his 1st visit. They had heard that Justo and Elia's apartment was almost ready except for some of the detail work but what they mostly needed was kitchen cupboards. After some discussion among themselves, they decided they would come down and build them with hopes that Justo and Elia could be in before Christmas. They will also be returning the last day of January with a team that has been scheduled to work other projects. Again, it is a huge blessing to Pan de Vida to have people willing to give their time and services to help progress in the ministry. It is especially meaningful when many come year after year to help in that growth.
