Keeping the basics going...by Jacob

Fridge, Microwave, Air conditioner, Weed Trimmer, All necessary basic things and they all seem to break quite often for some reason.

Toilets and Septic systems. Something else that is very basic and somehow, seems to break fairly often! I didn't put any pictures of me fixing the septic, some of them are not pretty!

We are still working on the vehicles as well. Getting ready for conference was a big challenge and next week, we have to register and safety all our vehicles. Not usually a big job, but it can be very time consuming!

 Here, we are getting together some materials for a church planting work in Biem. This is going to be a toilet and a shower. We might not think about it much, but the truth is, having a toilet and a shower are two of the most basic tools you can have when getting ready to present the gospel. Especially in a tropical climate without proper hospitals and care!

Great, The generator has another Reverse reactive warning! It seems like these last few months every basic thing has been having a problem! Electricity, Plumbing, vehicles, even keeping the grass mowed and the reptiles under control has been a challenge!


However, every now and then , I get to help with something that is really rewarding. a few months ago, I was able to help layout this new children's Sunday school building for our local church.We started this about 6 months ago. Things never move quickly in third world countries but you sure do see the local believers and their trust and patience as they watch God work!
