A pastor in Houston, TX donated two, much-needed school buses for their facility and Jeff and Pastor Earl went to TX and drove the buses down to Puerto Cabezas -- it only took 2 weeks! I’m trying to wrap my mind around 2 weeks in a school bus driving along the types of roads and middle-of-nowhere areas they must have encountered. Whew!

Jeff says that when he returned, he was greeted by 37 boys with great big smiles who couldn’t wait for him to see all the changes they had made in their house while he was gone. They are so grateful to have the new beds that OP has provided, that they were inspired to rearrange their rooms and even build new storage cabinets. Also, having ceilings in their rooms for the first time (imagine that!) has made them feel like they are living in a house instead of a barn with open rafters leading up to a zinc roof. Sometimes, it doesn’t take much to make a house a home.

They have a new sense of pride living in the Disciple House. They also took buckets of water and brooms and cleaned the outside of the house to show off new paint colors and they’re ready to welcome visitors!
