Time goes fast ha?
 
 

Hi,
Greetings from the little island called "Tierra Bomba" in the Caribbean sea at the city of Cartagena on the north coast of Colombia. Here we are building a house for the rehabilitation of street kids. A Swedish team was here helping me to build with Christmas and New-year. They worked very hard, so I barely enjoyed Christmas and New-years celebrations. They even had enough energy to do evangelism in town at night when they "found" a Christian young man who was sleeping on the street and took him along to work with us. They were so pleased with his work that now one of the Swedish is supporting him financially so he can stay here and work with me. His name is Johnn 19 years old and you can see him on the picture on the far right and on the next page. He is of great help to me. I hope that he can learn a lot while working with me and maybe do one of the coming DTS's.

Leveling the work floor

Laying the rebars
 
 
View from the house I am renting Praise God !!!! 
I have paid the rent until Aug. 2002 and with that money the landlord installed the electricity in the house I am renting. Also we were able to buy a second-hand concrete mixer. God provided. 		 Daniel and the concrete mixer
 
After 9 months we have finaly dug enough The final touch on the rebars 10 square meters of concrete poured
Here you can see the progress we made; we got the hole in the ground for the water tank nice and square and have put in the metal re-bars and poured the floor, which will be a strong foundation for the 2 story house we will built on top. The next step is to pour the walls. In the meanwhile I got 2 more full-time workers, so now I have 3 workers (see picture to the right). They are speeding up the work considerably. Including all the teams who come and work and on Saturdays the DTS students who come and work.
Please pray for safety for us. On the 5th of January I got heldup by a man with a machete and he robbed my camera. On the 6th of March a gang of robbers raided the whole house of a neighbor while he went to church. (He is also one of my workers now). Other team members and missionaries have suffered from break-ins and thefts as well.  My latest newsletters are all stored on the internet now.

El Refugio II As the house for the rehabilitation of street children will look like when it is finished.
 

It would be nice if the house would really end up looking like this.

 Would you like to help?
We have divided the cost of the whole house by the amount of floor tiles there will be; $25,= per tile. That way your gift will stay visible and I will send you a memory of that. Send your gifts to one of the following addresses mentioning "Tile". If there is no mention to the gift I will use it for my personal expenses which are very much needed to be covered as well.

Thanks a lot for your prayers and gifts.
God bless you.
