We are literally at a standstill with our church building at Cissin. We have made so much progress and I hope that you can tell it by the pictures. As I stated, we must pay about $5,000 in taxes by the 14th or it will supposedly double. This was a tax that I wasn’t expecting, next time, I suppose I will be prepared(but in Africa, I am not sure you are ever prepared). We praise the Lord that $3,500 has already come in. We have had to stop construction also due to lack of funds. The second half of the building is ready to pour.  As you can see in a picture below: the iron is in place,  the wood is in place, the bricks are in place.  We will need to buy some more granite, a little bit more sand and 200 sacks of cement.  The only problem is that we don’t have it.  I know that is Gods timing we will.  We need about $4500 do finish this.  Thanks for everything that you have done, especially your prayers.  They are greatly appreciated.
