The Goodfield Team

This past week I had the opportunity to go to JDV and spend a week with my home church.

(if you click on the pictures they become bigger)

The group picture after church

Getting to spend a week with:

My Mom, Cousin Rod, his son Kyle, Cousins Emily and Tiffany

Interpreting in Church while Jed preached on Sunday

He did a great Job as the deaf kept coming up to me telling me

how much they learned and enjoyed the sermon

Tony Driving the Mule and only having 3 people fall off while doing so.

The Slip n' Slide that was set up on rainy afternoons to have fun and pass the time.

I have a lot more pictures but not a lot of time to post.

I will get them up as soon as possible.

Thanks for such a great week Goodfield! I love you!

Please Pray

Please Pray for the Plattners. Keri was taken into the hospital yesterday when she was experiencing bad pains. She was not in labor and given a shot for the pain then kept over night for observation. This morning she did start having contractions. I don't know if they were going to let them come or try to stop them. They were planning on flying back to the states tomorrow to have the baby. Please keep them in your prayers. Thanks

To Show Our Appreciation

I had to wait to post these pictures just in case Ionda wanted to do this again with the Goodfield Sunday School who will be working with use this week. Now a week ago Friday after we had finished our work week and the team had cleaned up I asked the team for one more group shot. They all lined up and Ionda was in the tractor with the bucket up and filled with water. As you can see to show our appreciation for all their hard work we wanted to cool them off a little after they worked so hard:)

All ready for the picture not suspecting a thing
Still mostly clueless to what is about to happen.
Wayne looks up and sees the water...

Wayne takes off while the water starts to hit the top row

bottom row still clueless...

Those on the outer parts of the line not phased by the water being

dumped on those in the middle

Chaos as realization hits and people start running

Screams and Chaos continue...

Screams, laughter, and lots of wet people!

Last week in Review

If I only had time to put up all the great pictures from last week....

Or I was smart enough to know how to put a link that you could look at all the pictures....

But since I am not I will do a quick over view with pictures of last week:)

Sunday Afternoon after church we go to the Manchester Infirmary to sing and visit.

Monday -Friday

is the work week taking 1/2 days Thursday and Friday

Skylar, Lori, Brittany, Lindsay moving rebar to make cages

Laying blocks and getting the decking up

pulling forms out of the cistern and getting the prep work done so we can pour

Our big pour.

We started with a bucket brigade passing buckets up a ladder and across to the floor we were pouring. Once the tractor was fixed we were able to use the bucket on the tractor to lift loads of cement to the 2nd floor.

Me And Jaimie

On May 16th I had my first visitor come and stay with me!

My friend Jaimie came down from Indy to hang out with me for a week. We spent the first week here at KP hosting a work team before we both headed over to JDV to join Ted's work team.
