Tuesday dawned bright and sunny, with a clear view of volcano Fuego. We were touched early in the morning by the earnest prayers and songs from all the students gathered on the small cement "courtyard" of the Source of Hope School. They exhibit such joy and all seem to relish the opportunity to learn and participate.

The Team got busy with the work at hand here in Zapote: cabinet building, painting, cement work, plumbing etc. Neil and Dave returned to San Lucas with missionary Doug Johnson to attend to some needs at the Independence House, the home of the older Oasis girls. They recently had a new roof installed replacing the old rotted one and so there are some details involved there for a day or so.

Back here at the school, we had a long day working in the heat but are moving ahead to address the needs here for the students and missionaries. Two or three of our team members are dealing with potential mild illnesses or issues related to the heat and smoke from a close by burning barrel so we would appreciate your prayers for a return to health and mission effectiveness. 

Thanks for praying!
