It is finished

The "Raise this Roof" project is now complete. The roof is up, the walls are built and the pillars reinforced. 15 days ago, Pastor Claude, Carlos and I sat around dreaming of a new school building. That dream has come true today. Claude explained that this new building will be multi-purpose. At night, it will work as a shelter, for people to sleep in. During the day, a school for students and a church on the weekends.

"This building is answered prayer for me and my congregation" Pastor Claude Alce explained, "We prayed that God would send us help and he has! Thanks God."

The construction of the new building has promoted progress in Haiti. Carlos and I have an appointment tomorrow morning with a high official in ADRA. It's a non-profit organization, located up the street from the school. They supply aid to needy areas. This new school will show ADRA how serious they are in rebuilding the community. Prayerfully, ADRA will supply much needed food to ASCASH as they still struggle to feed the families and kids under their care.

Again, thanks to all who made this elusive dream become reality.

There will be a opening ceremony and dedication on Sunday, March 7th.
