Habitat Ends
Sioux Falls , SDm
June 15
What a great 2 weeks. We went from only studs for walls to sheathing for outside walls and roof. Fun to see it become a house.

Besides the two women who are the home owners of one house the other home owner came and worked with us for three days. She is a young woman from Kenya with 6 children. So that house will have 4 bedrooms and two baths. Her husband has a job and they have been in Sioux Falls 7 years. It was great getting to know her and teach her construction skills. She is Muslim so wore her long robes and headress every day.She was in a refugee camps hen the US government relocated the family to Sioux Falls.

The last night all the volunteers ordered pizza and celebrated. It was a great group of people.

We rested and washed during the weekend and visited the church we have enjoyed while we were here.
