Mission has legs!!

Another great day here in Doma. We almost have all the legs cut and assembled for all fifteen tables and the four benches that go along with the tables. Thanks to some very helpful local guys(4) that are willing to pitch in a help us. We have an assembly line working, one guys measures then the next guys cuts followed by me putting them together all 5 pieces, finally one guy that puts bolts in them that finishes the legs off. We are waiting on one last load of timber that will arrive in the morning. This last load consists of the 2x8's that will be the tops of the tables. Last night we made a trip over to the village that is about 1.5 miles away from the orphanage. They sang to us and fed us a great local meal that consisted of beans, vegetables and sadza (grits made of maze). While we were there to eat with children and their house mothers, I was able to look at the current tables that are in each of the 5 huts. And to say the least they are falling apart if not already completely broken. Yet the attitudes of the children and their house mothers are super positive and warming. I am looking forward to the time when we are able to take the tables to the children and show them their new place to eat, since they had to eat on the floor when they have lunch and dinner. Time seems to be flying by here, I miss home and all the friends and family. Thanks again for the support and help getting us here. I know the children and most of all the staff here at Eden's appreciate the hard work that went into this trip. Until next blog take care and God bless. Praise Yeshua!
