Just Another Day of Building By Ben Laedlein

Hello to all! Today was another great day of building. Many of the guys have been working very hard digging some deep trenches, only to just fill them back in with rocks. These trenches act as the main supports for the walls of the building. 

Swinging that pick axe all day is a very good back workout and we are all sore. Today for lunch we got to try our first traditional Bolivian meal called Sillapancho. It was some of the best food I have had in awhile. 

After lunch, it was back to the trenches and more brick laying. We only have two and a half trenches left and everyone is super excited. At the end we got to play basketball and soccer with some of the Compassion International kids. 

Today has been an amazing day and everyday I am able to see God working in every single one of us. This trip has been so amazing and I know it will get even better. I can't wait to see what more God has in store for us!
