Kenya 2014

Our Building Project

It started with digging

Building the foundations

Our first team finished up to the slab

Our second team arrived to build the walls

and they did just that!

The walls got higher…

and higher!

and higher!

Our third team helped lift the many trusses

They plastered…

…and plastered…

…and plastere

d!

They painted the windows and doors many times

and tried their hardest to get a lot of the work completed

Special thanks to John and his great team of fundis!

However your teams trips wouldn’t have been complete without all the wonderful stories you heard, and

the visits you made to our amazing partners.....

Message from Pastor Ben – “The work on the above subject has been going on very well and is about to end this week so as to embark on the roofing of the walkway. If the walkway

roofing was done before, then the plastering of the pillars wouldn't have been possible. The workers had a break of a

week and a half, they would have finished but coming week they will. Say hi to the teams.”
