Today was our first day at our mission site.  Upon arrival some of our team started connecting with local church members over pictures of their pets. 

To get the day started we had to mix our own concrete, wheelbarrow it over to where it was needed, and then pour the concrete into wood forms to prepare for the final floor to be laid. Other jobs included filling the joints of the walls with mortar and installing additional concrete panels to make the church walls. To make four batches of concrete our team had to shovel 320 scoops of gravel, pour 40 buckets of water, and 400 pounds of concrete mix but did it with joy!
