Dear family & friends,  Thank you for your prayers for the special Christian Heritage Academy group that met us at the border on May 27th.  They spent ten great days with us in all including two days of travel time plus traveling out to Wirichiqui Mountain. There were 25 of them and twelve or more of us including other missionaries and friends from WY and people from our church!

Praise God With Us For:

1. Two days were spent on the new school property, painting the last coat.  The town workers finished the large cement pad between the two buildings and now we begin the tile in the bathrooms and fixtures.  The group also painted in pastor Antonio's house and helped Josh Rose put the tin on his roof.

2. Some of us went right out to the mountain ahead of the rest to begin work on the walls for the construction of the airplane hangar.  My what a big job that was! The Indians had most of the about 3,000 adobes ready and Steve Barbour from WY and Josh Bullard, who is the director of the school drove the tractor every day with loads of brick to the building site. Steve filled in the airstrip with the dozer and our pilot friend, Mark was happy with the smoother landing!  The guys along with Ellis McMath of BTM mission cut down more trees too!  There was a welding crew who worked long hours too!

3. The Lord answered prayer with a good supply of the spring water, the kids were very thankful that they could at least hose off all the mud splats!  There was a great group of guys welding the metal trusses, 52 feet long, and they would come back to the cabin every 
day totally black! Ed could hardly believe that the walls are up and the trusses are built!

4. We can't thank this great group from OK and WY and NM enough for their willingness to come and work together in the heat and the dirt and accomplish in a little time what would take us much time to finish!    They each gave financially to the school project, what a blessing! May their work be rewarded in this life and in our heavenly home! 

Thank you for your part in this ministry of the Copper Canyon!                                                     Much Love in Christ, Ed & Debby Capps
