Three Houses in Three Days

Robby had a very busy week building three houses in three days! Today Leah, Cohen, and I went along with him to visit with the families and to install the last stove. Orily and the kids had a great time together.

Here is the "before" picture of this family's kitchen.

Here is the mother with her new onil stove. She now has much more time because she doesn't have to gather a load of firewood each day to cook for her family. This stove just requires a small amount of wood and the smoke is vented out of the house. Needless to say, this mother is thrilled with her new kitchen!

Cohen jumped right in and started playing soccer. He was surprised to find out that this little boy was already five years old even though he was much smaller than Cohen. We talked later about how this little boy didn't always have healthy food to eat and how it impacted his growth. We also talked about how God wants us to care for people in need like this little boy and his family.

Leah made friends quickly when she saw this little boy's Jeep! Of course there was no battery, so the older kids took turns pushing the smaller ones around the yard.

The kids showing us their conejito - little bunny.

This mother is Eva who received a new home last week. She had already fixed up her house, lining the outside surrounding the house with bricks. Her stove is setup and she is selling chile rellenos (which smell delicious by the way) to support her family. She shared today that God had spoken to her in a dream telling her He was going to take care of her family and it is clear that she knows that this gift was from above!
