Ed & Jeff treated us to another delicious breakfast this morning with eggs & toast and dark coffee. Dinner was an amazing meal prepared by the ladies at church with meat tacos, soup, thick hot chocolate, and flan.
Other than eating, we spent the day on our knees grouting tile. Roger & Lee finished cutting and laying tiles on the men's trough while Ken, Del, Steve, and Derek spreading grout & cleaning tiles. Ed & Jeff built another spectacular set of bunk beds complete with storage boxes for the men that will be installed in the new addition with the fresh concrete roof. They also added legs to a nice dining table top for the men to use and built a set for their Foosball table - the guys were all smiles afterward. The floor looks very nice with the grout, and we hope to wrapup the few open ends tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow is Friday already and that means we're nearing the end of our time here in Tijuana. Scott is going to take us to visit the churches they've planted, and the future site of the Rehab Center's halfway house. We're going to end the day with a "Carne Asada" party with the men of the rehab center that includes 35kg (2.2 lb/kg) of meat that is being marinated and will be grilled tomorrow. Scott, Del, Derek, Giovani (Jon), and Joe from the rehab center leadership team went shopping at a big meat market in Tijuana this afternoon. Sunny (or dry) weather tomorrow would be a blessing, but we'll have a good time and good food no matter what happens.
It's hard to beleive that it's Friday already! It looks like much has been accomplished! Have a great time at the party tonight! Continued prayers for a safe trip home -
