Here's the first of many updates to pass along as construction has started on our new elementary wing.
These pictures were taken before school started and before the 20+ workers arrived who have been digging the foundation. No big rigs here, all that you see has been done by hand and by shovel.
The cement for the bricks is mixed by hand. No cement trucks here, well perhaps I might have seen one on the streets of Niamey. The workers have been making bricks for about a month now and have a good supply on hand. It is exciting to think that in a few months, the shape of the building will begin to be seen.
Please pray for the staff here at Sahel as three of our teachers have had to or will be leaving the country for a time for medical reasons. We are already short-staffed this year and are so thankful for those who are willing to fill in while others are away. Pray for strength, healing and a quick recovery.
