TEAM 3 ARRIVES AT THE SITE
We arrived in Lesoibirsk with only a few setbacks. The two boxes of nails brought were not the correct type. A suitcase was lost flying into JFK and one of the USA workers didn't feel well for several days.
The nails were reconfigured to be used to nail by hand and the workers are now all feeling much better. We are still awaiting word on the luggage.
Monday morning, team 3 arrived at the church after enjoying Moscow and Krasnoyarsk. We have been working in the rain, which has been coming and going, along with the Russian inspector..
The men have been working on scaffolding and stairs to make an easier way into the church than up the ladders. The women have been stacking 1x4's and plywood to dry, and any other tasks needed.
We really would appreciate prayer and consideration for extra money to further the multiple needs of construction. Safety and better weather to work are continued requests.
WORK CONTINUES
Today, under mixed skies, the work progessed steadily. The women finished preparing the purlins by spraying them withfire retardant and the men worked to finish the scaffolding.
Our goal tomarrow will be to get the vapor barrier up along with the purlins in order to put on the tin roof.
We continue to look to the Lord for widom and provision. We are daily grateful for the support of people here and at home.
WOBBLY START
This morning, Wednesday, it continued to rain. But after morning prayer, devotions, and worship songs the skies cleared. Praise God!
We looked forward to starting the roof and putting on the facia. Then Bob discoved that the Russian team had prematurely removed supports when filling cracks with cement. The building was shaky and we were releaved there had been no strong night wind the night before. Soon we had supports up and were back on track.
