Thank you for your prayers regarding Dan’s trip to Chile.
Everything went smoothly with the paperwork, documents and connections, and he had the opportunity to go through the newly inaugurated Santiago International Airport for his flight back to the States.
During Dan’s month in Chile, much work was done to advance in the kitchen expansion project:
- Purchase, arrival, assembly and installation of the kitchen work tables and sinks (two refrigerators were also purchased).
- The bathrooms inside the kitchen area are now completed. This means sinks and toilets are installed, ceiling and lights are in place and mirrors and doors hung.
- The false ceiling in the kitchen area and lights have been installed.
- The gas installation for the grill, range and single burner stove have been fitted.
- The installation of the drain and water pipes for some of the sinks.
- The outside siding, lighting system and doors have been installed.
In order to finish the kitchen extension project the next steps are:
- Installation of the two ovens with the corresponding gas connections.
- Finish the fitting of the remaining drains and water pipes for the sinks.
- Finish the construction of the metal outside doors for the machine area and trash room.
- The taping, mudding and painting of the drywall.
- The installation of a temporary roof over the kitchen (hoping to finish the 2nd and 3rd floor for the kitchen project in the near future).
- Installation of the windows and mosquito netting.
The next couple of weeks are key to be able to finish the kitchen extension project. We covet your prayers for safety for the workers and the speedy culmination of the project. The next project in line would be the second floor of the girls cabin.
We also covet our prayers regarding our son Bryan and Rebeca’s upcoming wedding. Rebeca’s parents and brother are coming up from Argentina to be a part of this special day.
Thank you once again for your prayers for our family and ministry in Chile.
