All together

Just a quick update the whole team has made it safely to Yuma. We just ate dinner at In and Out Burger or Panada Express. We all walked there to get some fresh air. Everyone is back at hotel to have some down time and get some much needed rest.

Thank you for all the prayers and support for safe travels.

More updates to come tomorrow.

Michigan Unity

This morning chapel ended with everyone taking communion. All of the Michigan groups came together, led by Pastor Mike, to commune. What a beautiful sign of unity!

St John Rochester, Our Shephard Birmingham, and Redeemer Birmingham along with those of us from Octane who were not attending the breakfast at the Soli church.

To God be the Glory!!!

The key ceremony

The build team has completed all of their tasks as of this evening! APU will provide additional support to work alongside the family to finish plastering and painting the interior of the home.

The homeowner works until 6:30pm each night, so we could not have the key ceremony on the traditional Thursday afternoon, so we scheduled it for this evening- Mexicali Flexicali!

Octane and APU presented the family with the keys, quilts from the women of HWLC, Spanish bibles from the Gideons, and tiles salvaged from the original structure that were decorated with bible excerpts.

We prayed together and said our goodbyes. What an amazing blessing to all of us!!!
