Feb 2010 we started building the Big House

Thanks to Pastor Bill Miller and his team of 10 from New Testament Baptist Church in Miami who came to Cascabel in March 2010.

Pastor Bill got to share 4 times, including in a contested area where 2 gangs were having trouble with each other. Bill also taught guitar. I made flutes with the kids, There were art classes with Nancy the art teacher, translation with Cari the teacher. And helping with the construction with Mark and the team.
Thanks for helping to provide utensils for the Cascabel Bakery $455
Freezer for the juice bar $300
and extending the Sewing Business. $140

Also on this trip was Daniela an Airline Ambassador on vacation who bought the kids of Cascabel a cow and met the need for a door and window and locks on the Cascabel store and a rain gutter on a recent construction at the home.
