Global Outreach team of 100 builds 5 houses in Ensenada
Our terrific team of 100 volunteers built 5 houses in Ensenada the weekend of November 11-13th. If you're wondering how that can be done in just a couple of days, here are some photos that will show you the tasks of painting, framing, roofing, installing windows, etc. But even more than the construction process is the wonderful fellowship that emerges as the volunteer Global Outreach teams come together with the Mexican families to build a home that transforms family life. God makes it all possible for amazing things to happen. We are His hands.
After a community blessing to send us forth from Cure d'Ars Catholic Church in Denver, Colorado, we meet our extended team at the San Diego airport. They come from California, Texas, Oklahoma, and Washington. We define five teams and give each team member a toolbelt with their "team color". At the work site, we define initial tasks, such as framing or painting. Then we get busy building a home.
We may look a little ragged when we're all finished building the house, but we are incredibly happy!
