Moving along!

Hi All:

The work on the orphanage continues to go well.  They are almost finished putting up the fence, the gate has been added, a cross road has been cut, and foundations for three of the houses have been dug.  God continues to shower blessings on this project - and I mean that in a literal sense!  This is the dry season and rain is NEVER expected.  But, we have had a couple of hard rains that have softened the ground and made digging easier.

Also, I really appreciate your prayers concerning the director's position and God is busy answering.  I have had one interview and will have another tomorrow.  Two more will be interviewed on the 28th.  I know the person coming tomorrow and am really glad he has applied.  I am interested to meet the other two as they come highly recommended by someone I respect.  WOW!  Decisions will soon have to be made so keep those prayers coming!  Don't forget to pray for the right staff - house mothers, guards, cooks, compound manager.

Another interesting note:  The contractor, Santino, is building the roads at no charge.  It is his tithe to God for getting the contract.  He has built a couple of our churches and always tithes back to the church.  

I will continue to update you as things happen.  Thanks so much to all of you for your support.

God's grace, peace, and joy,

Libby and Fred
