Update
May 13, 2011 – 10:36 pmIs it just me or does time just fly by? I can’t believe that it is already the middle of May. With our Dedication Ceremony only 8 weeks away there is a list a mile long of things to accomplish before then. I am going to try to update you on everything going on here without writing a book.
Building
- Finishing the paint, man does trimming in take FOREVER!
- Putting on the zinc roof on the third floor.
- Pouring the sidewalks in the next week or so.
- Cement countertops that started in Nov. are 98% finished. They look amazing, but time consuming!
Container
God is so AMAZING! We were at a point where we thought we would have to send a container half empty. Then we received all the finances we needed and went and purchased the remaining items on the registry and the container was too full! A group of amazing volunteers unloaded the whole thing, we prayed and we got everything to fit. The container will be shipped out on the 22nd of May and arriving here in Belize by the 30th. The next thing is praying that the government will help us on the duty of the container. I am confident it will be another story of God’s faithfulness!
Dump
We have had several meetings with the government here in Punta Gorda. Tomorrow (Friday) we will be going to the capital of Belmopan and meeting with some higher government officials at 10am. I know that God is going before us. Please pray with us for favor and that they would have a heart for the value of life.
Marcus
Marcus is already 6 months old! That is so hard to believe. He is rolling over and smiling all the time. He is a very happy baby! The adoption is still in the process and we continue to pray that the Lord will speed up the process to allow him to be with his new family.
New addition
God has given us another opportunity to minister to the hurting. We will be taking in another pregnant rape victim. Please pray with us that God would give us the wisdom and the words to help her to heal and become the woman of God that He has called her to be.
We love you and thank God for supporting us and being with us on this journey. Be blessed and may the Lord reveal how real He is to you!
Blessings,
Jervis and Melissa Fisher
