Quota Meet

If you’re following along at home, maybe you’ve figured out it took us two days to finish two trusses. Well today we set our hopes high and our goal was two trusses done in one day and we made it, literally we made them. That leaves two more to make, then we stand them up on the wall. Everyone seems to be working really well together and staying busy most of the day. It’s hard for the cut team, when we are finishing all the welds and they have to wait till we’re done before they get to do anything else or go back to the hotel. Kelly and Tim have been very good about it and are getting really good at their cut station. Morgan and I are still burning rod. Finding a good way to weld this steel has been tough though (ever wonder how adding one letter can completely change the sound of the word and yet they look the same!). We’re getting better at our welds, but far from perfect. 

Jonathan stopped by the church again today. He is a young man I got to know last time and he has been in contact with me the last couple years. He plays the trumpet and the drums for the church. He currently teaches English in his community and is in school himself, taking Economic Sciences. Last year his church family had the opportunity to rally behind him and fundraise to help pay for a hernia surgery. He is a great young man and “Mwen Bon Zanmi”.
