What is rebar tieing


For those that might be wondering what exactly we're doing, I think this video clip might explain it to you. Here you have Chris Smith going against Will Partin in a little Friday afternoon "tie off"


It was another great day at the job site. There were no children in school today, as today was a holiday. During the afternoon, the kids yell "Americano!" at us as we're on the 2nd floor. A wave back and a "Hola!" is always met with a smile. A kind of smile that's hard to describe. These kids are so beautiful. During our lunch hours (actually, 2 hours), we didn't pass up the opportunity to walk through the neighborhood. Before we headed back to the job site, we stopped at the existing church. When the doors were unlocked an opened so we could look inside, the kids poured into the church. Before it was over, they sang a few songs with us and shared those smiles.



Enjoy the video.


God Bless you all!!

Scott W and the rest of the DR Mission Trip #1 team.

Dear St. John Adventurers,
Wowsers! It looks like ya'll are having a wonderful time. The rebar video is great - looks like at least a couple of you are ready for more Habitat work!

I was disappointed to hear that we would not be able to link up with you this morning, so it is wonderful to be able to keep in touch through your words and pictures. I can't wait to hear about the worship service you'll attend later today. Bring back a new song we can share!

How exciting to have gotten to hand out the VBS blankets to the children (actually, how exciting that they made it through Customs). Jennifer, did we have enough?

May God continue to bless your work and the precious people you are touching this week. You are in my prayers.

Hugs to all,
Candi
