The team worked hard in the morning and finished all three projects at Promise Home. The rooms are painted, the ramp to the church is built, and the structure of the chicken coop is up and ready for a carpenter to start working on it. It’s always a delight to work at a place that is changing so many kids’ lives. Promise is literally a city on a hill!

Our flight was cancelled due to the hailstorm in the DFW area, but we were able to be rebooked through London just a few hours later and finally made it to Barcelona yesterday. Praise the Lord for that because the hailstorm took out 47 American Airlines planes at DFW, but the one going to London didn’t get damaged so we were able to fly to the UK and hop over to Spain!
