Construction Progress

Here are some pictures of the new contsruction. Some of you are already familiar with it, but this property is across the street from the current property. We will eventually have new facilities for everything involved with the orphanage, while the current property will be continue to be used for the school and other ministries. In the picture above, the completed building on the right is Casa Elizabeth, where the girls are already living. The partially completed building on the top-left is the employee apartment building, where we will live, and they're pouring the foundation for the boys' home unit.

We climbed up on top of the storage tower with Kendon to get these pictures. We didn't realize how tall the ladder was before we started to climb... you can't really tell from the picture, but it's about 4 stories.

We also took a few pictures inside the new apartment building. The pictures on the right are of what will be our kitchen/living/dining room. It's a much different construction process down here, since everything is done with concrete- even the countertops and cabinets that you can see here are concrete.
