Our first highlight of the day was an appearance by the local monkey in the front yard.

This morning Bev and Ginny had the opportunity to visit an orphanage that specializing in babies. What an amazing place this is. They have 82 children primarily under the age of three. The organization is very impressive. You can see more about it at rehemaministries.com.

The work at the site continues to progress slowly. The forms for the ringbeams in building 2 are almost complete. We hope to start pouring tomorrow or the next day. Most of the plastering on the walls of building 2 is complete, just the front two rooms are left and we have begun to pour the concrete floors. A couple of the team members have been feeling under the weather but still insisted on showing up and putting in a good days work. We are all feeling the pressure to get our task completed. Our goal is to have the 1st building ready for the family to move in. Adam will be staying on another month in Kenya to see the entire project to completeness. Jim Weick will be arriving Saturday to help out. The 2 of them will be team #5. We might not see the blog posted as often. Anyone else want to come out and help?
