It was a quick but productive trip to Puerto Plata, of the  Dominican Republic.The orphanage called Tesoros de Dios (God’s Treasures) has 42 orphans and only 2 bedrooms. So, the project was developed by Bowie Beckman and his brother Levi to build a second floor with more bedrooms.  In a jam packed week of work, 3/4 of the second floor of the orphanage was completed, using 3,000 cement cylinder blocks. Fortunately, many of the older teen orphans helped out which tremendously  speeded things up. Lord Willing, we plan on returning in January to put in the roof and the windows and complete the rooms.
