And sometimes the little things matter too – Luke fixed the cement mixer (so instead of the removal of a rock that stopped the rotation of the weel, he put a spring that he found on the road) and it works great!

More work needs to be done, but we are so thankful to God for everything He helped us achieve so far.

But this time it…
