construction

We have (God willing) a volunteer team coming this Spring to help us finish our last building project: the KACHEP meeting room. We’ve already dug the foundation trenches (hired them to be dug) and we’ve bought and placed the twisted rebar. Now we’re waiting for a truckload of cement to arrive from Mbale and pour cement.  The soil around the one meter foundation whole has an ever-growing crack so we really need to get it poured before it collapses with the rains that have started. When the team comes, we can lay stone and (hopefully) finish it – it will be 8 meters (external) from end to end, oval, like the ‘stone house’ with half-walls all around except for one end with a storeroom (taking 2 m from the internal measure – thus, 5 m from end to storeroom door) – the exciting thing about this is (drum roll), we’re doing it all ourselves – pray long and hard
