Day Three, They had been with Jesus

“Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” Acts 4:3
Today we had the task of trying to build a house for a family with 3 small children.  Our goal was to accomplish this feat in one day.  We were told this could be done.

However what happened next was that our crew took longer than expected to get there. Road construction made our trip around 2 hours out to the home site.  Then upon arrival the tools we needed to begin the foundation were missing.  We’re sure that the community people were wondering how all these gringos were planning to build a house with no tools, let alone try to complete it in one day.
By the end of the day, the community people were standing around looking at a completed house ready to be moved into.  Our hope is that they looked at these gringos and realized that we have been with Jesus.
