We recently spent a week in Ensenada, which is about an hour and half drive south from the ranch. Together with a team of families from Memphis, we built a home for a Mexican family. The family consisted of a woman, her two children, her sister and niece. It was amazing to get to know the family a little bit, especially the children. The mom worked every morning, so she wasn't always around. When she was, she helped with the construction of her home, so that was really neat.
Ron worked closely with Juan, a pastor that works with YUGO as a foreman for houses being built Ron was able to learn a few helpful hints from that. It was also great for us to just see how another YUGO camp runs. It was helpful for figuring out some scheduling decisions for the ranch when there are building teams, for seeing how things run when there are multiple houses going up in one week, etc. Five houses were built that week in Ensenada, with a total of eighty-four homes going up this year. We are so excited for the day when we have multiple houses being built in the Rosarito/Tijuana area during the year, and Lord-willing, multiple houses going up every week during the busy seasons. We praise God for this awesome opportunity!!
