Community service celebrations!

It’s been an absolute pleasure to work side-by-side with the workers in our village of Binh Thuan to complete three new homes for local families. We celebrated with the families by having lunch together, and we also had an official key ceremony with the families and government officials. From the floors to the ceiling, from the tiles to the paint, from mixing concrete to laying brick, we had a hand in every phase of building these homes and it is very gratifying and humbling to do this work!

We grew very close with the family whose house we ate lunch at everyday! We will miss them very much!
