The Work

One of the biggest hurdles to finding a sede for the movement in La Plata has been finances. It is this area of faith that has led us to where we are now. Given the limited budget that we have to work with, the condition of the building that we are renting requires some serious work! And this is one area that we are excited to see students began building this sede into a place that is their own. If there's one thing that students do have the ability to give here it's time and energy. And of course we've been there to lend a hand as well.

This is the larger of two salons or rooms that are included within the building. It used to be an automotive garage as you can see from the wooden planks covering the "pit".




















This is the primary of two bathrooms. Nothing like washing your hands AND taking a shower at the same time!

















This is the backyard that hasn't been looked after in a LONG time. While clearing this we found a really cool palm plant, a mature grape vineyard and a fig tree.
















This is Mauricio using the power washer that a friend of his was gracious enough to lend us. We had to send a power cable across the street to run the machine due to the fact we didn't have any power!




















Seth must have drawn the short stick to get stuck on bathroom detail!

Landry and Guillermo take a break from burning trash and yard waste. A job that spanned several hours and multiple days.

At the end of the day, these were the last men standing (woman). In truth there were many more hands that helped us throughout the day.
