Day 7 - Last Work Day



Friday began with plans to finish setting the toilet, putting the vanity in place, connecting the water lines to the sink and hopefully being able to prime and paint the walls above the tile. After breakfast, Scott gave a quick devotional from Philippians 2 and Patrick sent us out with prayer.

We have been blessed with dry weather the entire week.  The good weather has enabled us to work consistently to accomplish our goals. A couple of years ago Pucallpa got its own version of Home Depot, which has made things much easier on the staff in terms of being able to have many different types of supplies in one place. What could have taken several hours driving to multiple different hardware stores, now can be done in as little as an hour.

While we ran out of time to complete everything to our satisfaction, we were able to make all of the water connections and set the vanity in place, so the bathroom is functional.  The walls were primed and painted as well. The SAMAIR staff will need to make several tweaks to the fixtures before they use them on a regular basis, and they will be able to do so in a short time.  The staff that we worked with were pleased with all that was accomplished.
