Update 5/21/13


This past weekend we had more new faces and were able to get many things accomplished.  We have a few painted rooms!  We have an exhaust fan in the bathroom!  Brian is almost finished sanding and sealing the floors!  Thanks to those who helped, thanks to those who donated materials and funds.  We continue to be humbly grateful and in awe as we watch God working through His people in this situation.  
Things are coming together for sure, but as we look at the calendar, the deadline is closing and there are no more push-backs.  Even thought it may still look impossible to be move-in ready in just a few weeks, with God?  We know with God we can accomplish many things.  He is on our side and know He is faithful.  Thank you for trusting Him as you come along side to help bear this burden with us (Gal. 6:2).  


Below you'll find updated lists for what needs to be accomplished the upcoming 2 weeks.
