FOLLOW OUR ADVENTURES IN DEMLAND

We live amongst a tribal group known as the Dem who are located in the mountains of Southeast Asia. We are here to learn their language, translate the Bible into their language, and teach them about God.

After a 3 week break due to malaria and some type of infection, Dylan went back in for another week. This time, two of our coworkers helped him work on things and they got so much done!

Front porch
 Front door
 kitchen sink
a pantry 
(we will be bringing in about 3 months worth of food and supplies at a time)
A sewage tank
 Dylan was able to get all the plumbing done for the house.  We get the water from a spring about 300 meters up the mountain.  It's collected in a big tank up there and then runs through a pipe to our house.
 
 and the bathroom!  We are so thankful that we were able to get a bathtub.  It will be so nice, especially for the kids.  This is the nicest bathroom we have had since moving to this country!
another thing that they were able to do was seal a lot of the gaps and cracks in the house.  Hopefully there will be less of these friends when the kids and I move in next week!

Wow. Really looking good. I love your bathroom but I do not like the spider. Hope you don't get anymore of those.
