The Waiting is Over for Darbonne

The waiting is over! God 's answer to our prayers for partners in this most worthy endeavor was to link us with our friends at CoAid, based in Colorado. Who but God could intricately link people from so many different places to work together for His purposes? Truly awe-inspiring!!

Thank you so much, Steve, for taking this need to your board and for impressing upon them the importance and urgency of this project. The construction of a transitional shelter community in Darbonne is happening none too soon for these poor people who have been almost completely without aid since the earthquake and living totally exposed to the elements for so long.

This parcel of land is going to create a wonderful home for so many people - plenty of shade trees and nice level terrain. I had already negotiated the contract with the landowner, so I will visit with her tomorrow to finalize things. The plan is for the planners to draw up the layout tomorrow as to where the homes, latrines, play area, etc. will be placed on the property and for the workers to begin construction shortly thereafter.


Relishing this miracle,
Roody
