Painting and roofing

   We have continued to be busy with the construction of the ophthalmology clinic. It is so exciting to see progress each and every day! We decided to paint the clinic ourselves in an attempt to save money, so two weeks ago I went and bought 35 gallons of paint. Thanks to the help of many other missionaries from all different organizations we were able to get the whole clinic painted in one day! It is now a very pretty yellow color.
   The roof of the clinic was also completed last week. Once the brick is completed (which should begin next week) the clinic will be completely water proof. Thank goodness because rainy season is going to probably start in about 1 month.
   We had a team from South Carolina come and help us finish the roof last week. We have a peruvian construction team who are putting in the drop ceilings this week and Nathan will finish wiring and hanging the lights! It is amazing how much has been done in such a short period of time. Thank you again for your prayers and encouragement throughout this process.

Here are a few pictures of the progress:
