The sun finally came and we were all excited to move to the land and leave Regina´s mum´s land...we were very grateful for this shelter at this early stage, but it is time to move on ...
we still had some priorities, like fixing the floor of our kitchen, setting up my sister's tent that would become the "girl's castle" for me, Simone and Miri, digging a shit pit, making a bath place, etc...
And still, we didn't have our way fixed to pass with the vans... you can see better in the pictures what I mean... That's the main reason we are praying for a pick up...that would be the best for us to work here ... poor vans !!!
how it was before...
I have to say that I really admire all of these guys and the way they are all working...they are all amazing people...I love them !!!
Edi here...
Jo leveling the pallets...
Miri and Simone (in the back), making the cupboards for the kitchen... Miri made an amazing window too...all with recycled pallets...so cool !!!
Peter and Mark...in good spirits even with hurting thumbs
Micha, here having his birthday breakfast... he made a great job opening a big canal for the water to pass in our bottom terrace, the nice shit pit that you can see on the pictures (the most comfortable I´ve ever tried I have to say), and other things...now he wants to make a tree house ... we will see how that goes...
I also made our bath place .. We got a nice contact with a guy from an "Eco centre" (recycled trash place), and he got us a nice bath tub...perfect !!!
we still need to finish the "walls" of the bathroom, but we had nice and warm baths already...under the moon light
Thanks to our nice neighboor, Sr.Joaquim, we have drinking water from a natural spring :-)
Yves also lent us the generator so we can use the machines to work !!!
And Michu also came, of course :-) she feels at home already !!!
I don't have pictures here, but Juran is also building a clay fire place for our kitchen, Timy and Monike are making amazing bread for us all to eat...
I was helping Dominike and Frauke to find an apartment for them and the baby... This was another amazing testimony for God's glory... They had prayed and felt long ago that they would stay in Yves and Regina's second floor appartment, but the thing is that Yves said they couldn't... we looked for houses everywhere, and we couldn't find anything... and when we would find, something would be wrong and we couldn't get it... so they decided to not look anywhere else and stay in the van with the baby... we were all still feeling they should go to Yves and Regina's, but we would respect their free will... On friday Yves went to the land as we were on the move and told Dominike he could stay with the apartment... I was not there, but Simone sent me a message saying when they got to the apartment they were all crying... God is good and faithfull... I really admire Frauke's faith... she always had such peace, and even when we were loking for other places she was always saying "why are we looking for other places? we are to stay in Yves' apartment, that's what God told us, wasn't it? " ... God is good and faithfull !!! we surely praised God for this one...
we are o.k...thanks for all your prayers, support, encouragement and money... this is church, and you are part of it ... Jesus is building us up !!!!
In all things we praise God, the One who takes care of us all !!!
