If anyone is poor among your fellow Israelites in any of the towns of the land the LORD your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward them. Rather, be openhanded and freely lend them whatever they need.
-- Deuteronomy 15:7-8 (NIV)

More photos from Chemelil...

Here are few more pictures from our mission:


Here Shane is discussing the project with the local builder, Pastor Samuel. Behind them is one of the Real Home Life Center's classroom buildings.


Part of the job here is to constantly inspect the "sanitary facilities", a task which Shane does well.


Shane and Pastor Samuel standing in the entry to Boaz's new home as work goes on around them.


The Mzungu, Shane (aka, big elephant), is always popular with Boaz's kids.
