Guatemala Photo of the Day – More Than A Pile of Wood

When we arrived at the job site the first day there was a pile of wood, but it was more than just a pile of wood.

The small team who arrived a few days before us had actually poured a lot of sweat and muscle into the wood.  The three members of the team who arrived early actually spent several days chopping the bark off the pieces of wood using machetes. It was hard work that left blisters on their hands and sunburn on their faces.

This pile of wood represents all the love, tenderness, and generosity that went into building each portion of this house.
