The joys of mission work

Image
 Being on mission is a unique experience.  A blend of personalities working together in difficult conditions trying to accomplish too much in too little time.  Even with the best laid plans, things always change and usually don't go the way you had hoped. Ultimately, however, the work is in God's hands and as long as the work goes the way He planned, all is good.

A young man stopped by Monday morning when he saw us loading wood and said he was looking for work and asked if we could use help,  He was a very capable man and we hired him for two days.

Day 1: to Work!

We are building a 24' x 30' structure that will be used for Holy Mass and church outreach in this poor area of Belize City.  Many people that live here do not have transportation and getting to Mass is difficult.  Having this building will serve as a community center as well, for people to gather to visit, pray, and get out of the sun. Eventually the plan is to have homes for mothers and children in need, with a community of support to help them better their lives. Here are some views of what was done today.
