Two More Homes for Needy Families

Tomorrow another team comes to build the second of three homes in January.  This time, it is the Medina Valencia Family.  Isabel is originally from Mazatlan and moved to Cofradia to be on the missionary staff a number of years ago.  Since then, she has married and continues to be involved in the local church activities.  The live in a borrowed house that leaks when it rains and has no electricity.  They will be receiving a new house next week.  Here is a pic with some of the preparations already made…
The floor has been poured and funds for a bathroom have been raised.  The bathroom is complete in this photo.

The third home will go to a family in Arrayanes.  A couple of years ago, they were involved in a bad car accident that left the mom, Karen, with a broken spine and unable to walk.  She spends most of her time in bed and gets around in a wheelchair with the help of family members.  They have one little girl. They will be receiving a house and bathroom.  Here is a pic with some of the preparations already made…
Work is being done to prepare for the pouring of the floor which is scheduled for this Saturday.  In the back alongside of the current house is the slab where the bathroom will be.
