So, the new Makarios team house is on its way up. The first floor walls are complete and the roof of the first floor was just laid this past Friday. The guys think that we'll be real close to completing the second floor by the end of the year.
Miguel is still doing a Bible study with the guys working on the job site. It usually ends up being once a week but every once in awhile twice a week. They are going through Genesis right now and Miguel has plans to start studying John with them as well. Be praying for the guys. None of them are Christians that we know of and some are very interested in wanting change in their lives. Their names are Javier, Papo, Juan, Alfredo, Daniel, Eddy, Samuel, and Andy.
Miguel is also not heading up this project alone. There is another American working together with him named Garrett. Garrett and his wife Anne are here for a couple of years to see this project through and to also act as basically directors overseeing everything here in the Dominican Republic for Makarios. They have been a wonderful asset to the team and we are so grateful for their wisdom and support. They are also the godparents of Diego! Jonathan is also from Texas and is here with us helping on the construction project until Christmas break. We wouldn't be able to do it all without them!
