Last week I was in My Village from Wednesday to Saturday. I saw that they had made progress on my house, but the masons weren’t there working at all during the time I was there. It sounds like the progress has really slowed down. Yesterday the guy who’s like our middle man, dealing with the masons and the whole building process, came over and we talked about it. He said that he’s going to put more pressure on the mason, and see if he can finish the houses by May 8th or not. If not, he’ll find a new mason and this one is out of a job. I doubt it will actually be done by May 8th no matter what the mason says, but hopefully in the near future? I head to Tanzania for some training in a few days, and don’t get back until May 18th. My hope? That my house will be done, or at least almost done by then. I guess we’ll see!
I attached multiple pictures for you this time:
1. My house as it stood on Saturday, which I think is the same as it is today.
2. My living room, as seen from the front door.
3. My bedroom.
4. The view from one of my bedroom windows. That house straight in front of you is my host dad’s house.
5. The view from one of my living room windows. Nice!
Thanks for your continued prayers that this house will be built quickly and well, and that it will be used to further the kingdom of God.

Hi Susie. The interesting thing to me is how the building style is so similar to how they build in Panama. We are praying for the completion of the work.
John for Genise also.
What a beautiful view from your living room! Praying for safe travel to Tanzania and for the builders to pick up the tempo just a little.
