third day and trying again

As you may have guessed, we are having trouble getting internet to send from Liberia. Today we continued our work on the building. Bruce and the workers finished the cement floor today with help from Jerry and Jim. Vern and Cindy Gack helped the stucco guys with the cement mixture. Cindy has found her calling playing in the mud. Cindy R and Mary took a morning trip to purchase some surprises for the school, and then helped with water. Cindy L helped with water and Bernadene continued to smooth stucco, up again on the makeshift ladders. Tommy helped the water patrol. Bill continued to converse with the many kids in the neighborhood, and encourage the high schoolers in their future plans. We learned today that our guides here, Anthony and Jennifer, went to the hospital. Jennifer has malaria, so please pray for them both. the people here are so friendly and stop by to just thank us and all from the Warsaw District for allowing them to have a new cafeteria. Thank you all for your prayers. cg
