Making progress between the rainstorms!

It's all a matter of perspective...what might seem to us as slow progress is lightning speed for Nicaragua...at least that's what friends here tell us. So we are grateful! And every day without rain is a blessing. We have entered the rainy season, but we are hoping for some dry mornings or afternoons to work. 

The builders are really having to use their creativity as we are deep in "uncharted waters". But when we asked Santiago the other day if he liked the challenge of building something he had never built before, he said yes! he did.

Here are some pictures of the most recent progress:

Cutting to prepare one hull to fit the other half.

We so greatly appreciate your prayer support as we move forward with this project...the most urgent prayer needs right now are:

  • dry days (or even partial days) to do the work
  • funds to complete the boat (we are close to half way there)
  • language study
  • wisdom to know how and where we fit into this community 

If you would like to give toward this project, funds can be sent to: Global Outreach P.O. Box 1, Tupelo, MS 38802. Or directly on the website: www.globaloutreach.org. Account # 1056.

Please pass this blog on to others you think would be interested.

Blessings! Dan and Donna Letton
