Yesterday, we had another pipe burst in our kitchen. Water came rushing out, and it was hard to get the water turned completely off. We were up late into the night trying to get things cleaned up and dried out.
We are without water at the house today. Enrique is working hard to figure out how to repair the pipes.
It is hard to believe that the Carolyn House is 16 years old! It has been a blessing to our big family and all the children who have lived there.
There are many repairs to be done. Keeping the mold out has been a huge job, and at times it feels a little overwhelming.
The dehumidifiers help tremendously, but our electric bill has been extremely high. We are looking at ways to lower the cost. This has been a big concern as we try to figure out what to do.
We do not have the money for repairs, so we are asking the Lord for wisdom and guidance on what He wants us to do. The farm and land are a big responsibility. Right now we cannot afford paid help.
We don’t want the upkeep and repairs to take away from being able to reach out and care for others, especially the children who depend on us. Would you please pray for us? Especially Enrique. He carries so much and is always serving and caring for others.
God has opened doors, He is doing new things, and we are SO grateful!! We will need the Lord’s wisdom going forward and the resources to do it.
If you know anyone who would like to stand with us so we can continue our work, we would be very grateful. Your love, prayers, and support mean so much to us and to so many!!!
