Stained
Bernie Anderson
This week we have been working hard to get a building renovated to be used as a student ministry center, in the heart of Ulaanbaatar. We have hired a young lady to manage the center. Her name is Onon (we'll write more about Onon on a later post - but you can begin praying for her now!).
Friday photo's for this week are some renovation shots (you may be getting a lot of these in the near future!). Our main accomplishment this week is getting a concrete floor stained. Onon said this is probably the first stained concrete floor in Mongolia. When we went to the building supply district (called zuun aile in Mongolian - think Home Depot explodes, and lands in a flea market setting) and explained our plan, we were told several times that it couldn't be done. Well, as you can see below, it is being done! We'll be sure to post shots of the finished product when we get it all done.
Until then, here are some shots of the work in progress.
Also, we recently put out this funding newsletter. Please be sure to read it and let us know if you are being led to help in this project!
