In early July 2020, we gave our down payment on a 3-acre plot in Iganga that will serve as the site of Daystar Home. Here are pictures of the land and our meeting with the local council and neighborhood witnesses.
In late July, we paid off the land, purchased building supplies, and continued the brick making process.
In mid-August, we began construction! We are building a four-room children's home that can house 12 kids and a caregiver. Here we are clearing the land, measuring for the structure, digging the foundation, moving bricks, and getting to know our neighbors.
August 19, 2020: Two days later, we have the outline of our building!
The work is going really well, but we need to stop for now until we can raise more funds for materials and labor. Praise God for how far he's brought us so far. We have faith that the Lord will enable us to finish this house by His grace.
August 21, 2020: A team member was able to contribute money for one more day's labor--now it looks like this! Okay, now we will take a break and pray for God's provision.
Thank you so much Dad Wayne Ogimachi and mum for the prayers and support. You are a great blessing.
We're glad to hear and see the progress in the building. May the Lord pour out his blessings on Daystars plans to serve the community and bring the good news of Jesus. We're praying for you!
