DR Day 7

We headed out early to the worksite as we had been planning to begin pouring cement on the roof. Many pieces of equipment had arrived since we were on the site two days ago and all we needed was for the water truck to arrive to begin the mixing of the cement. However, once the truck arrived, it got stuck in a ditch and the tires were deep in mud. The workers immediately began to try to leverage it out with large planks of wood, and ropes. Thankfully, after several attempts and prayer, they were finally able to pull it out of the mud, and onto our site. In the meantime, we were able to pray for a woman who was sick, and some of us were invited to join one of the local families for lunch. The crucial job of pouring cement on the roof has finally commenced as of early this afternoon. It was our goal to complete this before we leave for home tomorrow, so we were thankful that we were able to witness this today.
