"Your a Good Good Father"

This last house build was amazing, we built for a dad of 3 children, his wife had left about 3 years ago.

This family, were surrounded by helpers, Carlos(Dad), His dad was there and his mum, his Nice, the neighbours and others from around the community.

What am amazing family the incredible humbleness and gentile heart of Granddad was so welcoming to all our team from YWAM and Canada, he was so Kind and loving, mostly with tears in his eyes throughout this weekend as he worked so heard for his son and his Grandchildren to have a house that was theirs.

His Son Carlos worked so hard this whole weekend and never lost the incredible smile that was permanently on his face, also his son and two daughters helped paint, hammer and build their new home, with incredible joy and smiles too.


This was a very precious family that had been living in a very sad situation, they had been living further away in a little room of a friends house and now they could have their own house, be near the kids school, be near Grandma and Granddad!!


One of the Team from Canada Asked "How do you manage to work and take care of your children and be smiling so much and be a man with such joy and peace?'
Carlos said it's all thanks to God, this is a testimony of God in his life, since his wife left he found the Lord and Carlos said he would never have been able to be who he is today and be the father he is today without God his Father in Heaven......

One more of my favourite moment was when we dedicated the completed house to the family and they could enter in.
From behind us all came a massive cheer, shouting, clapping, screaming and such joy...... we all turned around and it was so many people in the neighbourhood who know this family and were overjoyed for this family to have a house of their own, if anyone knew how much this family deserved it, it was their neighbours, we were all in tears too of such happiness





This was another testimony for me of the impact that this kind loving family are in their community and I believe it is the fruit of having a Loving, Loving, Father in Heaven.....

Thats our Father....
First Glimpse inside.... after it was all decorated and decked out with house things...
