Home repairs in El Barranco!

Our fantastic volunteer, Michael, who is now re-named Miguel has been doing a wonderful job carrying on with the construction work since his partner-in- building Wayne, left for Canada.
Michael inspired a group of volunteers and Mayan Families staff to accompany him to El Barranco and repair the roof for widow and her children. This woman was very, very grateful. She had been dreading the coming of the wet season as the water would pour into her home. She feared every little earthquake tremor because she was afraid the roof that was so badly rotted would fall down on her and her children.
She told me afterwards that her heart is now peaceful because she doesn't have to worry about her house falling down on her children. It was the first time I have ever seen this woman smile.
