Thank you for your prayers and support for this mission. The Lord is moving and we’ve been burning our candles at both ends. Pray for continued strength in this difficult mission trip.
The small village we are in, which I cannot name at this time for security reasons, was hit very hard. They are not getting the help they need. It’s so important that we are here.
The first two days we worked in the cold and rain (and some snow) to start our assessment of the most needy for shelters. This is a very old village with ancient homes, most of which were destroyed by the quake. Some homes were 145 years old.
Earthquakes are a daily thing but I feel no danger. I am so grateful to be here and I am very welcomed here. I am staying with a local family and they are treating me so kindly.
This is not a place to where you drop in. It won’t work. The culture is very sensitive. There are a lot of moving parts to get us where we are. We’ve had a few hiccups but that’s fine. God is good and he sees us through.
Please pray for our interpreter. Without her it would not be possible to build shelters for these families.
I will report again soon now that we are gaining ground on the project. Thank you all again for your prayers and generous support.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Kenny
