Settling Time.

Well the rains have certainly arrived, and the timing has been perfect. We were able to finish up the brickwork along with the concrete column bases. Once they were finished, the trenches were ready to be filled up. Now filled up, the rains are doing all the heavy work of compacting the soil. Then when the soil is compacted into the trenches, it will get tamped down even further, followed by the hardcore treatment. The hardcore treatment is a couple of layers of bricks tamped down to create a solid surface to pour the concrete slab onto.

Thank you all who have supported thus far, and please ask God if He wants you to continue to support this project. The next step after the hardcore is the concrete slab, which is another estimated $18,000. Again, please consider supporting the BIC Church of Malawi and their church center building, they are very excited to have this headquarter building built.
