down to the wire

First of all, a huge THANK YOU goes out to all who have donated to this building project. This project cannot happen without you're support. Thousands of brick have been laid, and there are at least a few courses of brick around the perimeter of the building and almost all of the brick foundation is in place in the deep sections. We used up the few remaining bags of cement to complete the footer for a column and start another, but six and a half column footers remain along with about 20 meters of i
nterior wall footer. Some more resources have just come in, but not enough to complete the concrete footers. We are/were planning on pouring the remaining footers on Friday, but that's only if enough funding comes in. Another $500 will complete the concrete footers and an estimated $2000 will complete the foundation. It's coming down to the wire as rain clouds are starting to hover over the site almost daily. If it rains here, it pours, the trenches will fill up nicely, we won't be able to pour, and the kids will be able to have some fun in the mud! If you are willing and able, please donate to the church of Malawi... the sooner the better, and I know you will be blessed for sharing in the resources the Lord has entrusted you with.
If you would like and are able to provide a part of the Malawi BIC Church Center foundation, please don’t hesitate to donate. You can donate online at http://www.bic-church.org/wm/give/partnership/malawi/ and scrolling down to "Maone Church Center." You can also send a check written out to BICWM with “Maone Church Center” in the memo line, and sent to either BICWM, PO Box 390, Grantham, PA 17027 or BICWM, 2700 Bristol Circle, Oakville, ON L6H 6E1.
