We finished up the last few items – some interior bits, trim, windows and a door, and cleaned up.

The local pastor came by for a short dedication service. We gave the family the keys, a Bible, and helped them nail a Casas por Cristo plaque to the house. Then they thanked us by feeding us delicious pizza. We were happy to have bonded with them, glad to see their joy at receiving their house, and sad that we had to say goodbye. It must have still been really dusty, as quite a few eyes were wet.

Hopefully we’ll be able to stop by and say hi the next time we come to Guatemala!
