I said this, this past weekend at the dedication of house build that I had the privilege of leading for the first time. I was pretty nervous as you can imagine! Before the team arrived I planned, asked many questions, prayed, hoped for the best and lost some sleep. Many of my questions had to do with doing the electrical. I’ve never done any electrical before so I was a little nervous going in. The team was from Orange County California and they built 4 houses here in the Tijuana area. There were more than 20 people on the team that I lead and they were from the ages of 10 to 60. Families who came down to serve and to have a family experience together. The family we built for consisted of a mother her grown son who is married and a sister. The married couple had some hard times. She was very pregnant and he just had an emergency surgery to have his appendix removed. So they both needed help getting around.
Thanks to the team from Orange County they got a brand new house with tight corners and a leak proof roof! Praise God. And God answered my prayers and their turned out to be an electrical engineer on the team so all the electrical was done right! I suppose this was the first of many more A builder jobs for me. The best part was that during the dedication it started raining. A christening of the house kinda.
Since then however is hasn’t stopped raining! We have had 4 days of rainy and stormy weather with power outages here and there. It’s been an interesting couple days!
