Mayra and I put our 7 beloved interns on a bus towards a Christian camp on Thursday, and had all day Friday without visitors. But we go so lonely during that one day! Good thing Charles, Guy, Chad, Anna-Lee and Zach arrived!
After a good meal at a local restaurant we did our first bit of work...moving about 20 20ft metal beams from the floor of the church up to roof of the second floor. Sound easy? Ouch...it wasn't. I must be getting older...just about killed me. Tomorrow at 6 a.m. the fun starts...and will continue all week.
After moving the beams, we went to Jim and Shari Cottrill's Canada Day party, celebrated a few days late. Canada Day is July 1. It was a great time.
Today we had a joint Santa Barbara and Jesus Maria service, with all of us, I would guess over 100, meeting at the first church, celebrating what we hope is our last service under the white tarp/tent that is our improvised roof. Miguel preached, and did a great job. Then...hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill, with Charles and Guy doing the grilling. Good time! Pictures later.
