Plans to dig a well

A group from my home area in Mississippi will be here the 14-21 of this month to do some work with us.  We decided about two weeks ago to dig a well ourselves.  The holding capacity that I added last year just isn’t enough for our family, church, garden, and critters.  From the time that we first mentioned this to the group and how much it would take to put in the well it wasn’t very long at all until God had raised the $2200 needed for everything to do with the well.  God is good!  We are also hoping to put in a drop ceiling in the building that we use for our services.  When we stepped out on faith almost two years ago to remodel and extent this building God moved in a big way and brought in all of the needed funds.  We will be using it like a multipurpose building (minus the basketball court) and we’ll have church services, English classes for two groups of thirty people each, and the classes for the Bible Institute.  The last two weeks have been in the 100’s in the shade.  The roof is a laminated asbestos and it gets really hot, like and oven inside especially when you have lots of people.  The drop roof estimate for materials is around $1300-$1400.  This is an area 7x15 meters plus the bathroom.  It is very easy to put up and we can do it easily while the group is here if we have the funds.  If anyone would be interested please give me a call on my Vonage phone 601-724-5155 and it will reach me here in Mexico.
