Tropical storm Nate; Pozos de Puriscal

Wednesday we started getting heavy rains, it continued into the night and at around 4 am we lost electricity, it just came back on Friday afternoon around 1pm! We have been working inside the conference building so we continued to work! We heard yesterday it was a tropical storm, we hadn't seen any news!
Then this morning Luis who helps here at Camp said he could barely walk through, a mudslide on the road here! So we went up with back hoe, machetes and chain saw. Thankfully the local men had already began work clearing debris and in less than 2 hours we had a path cleared for vehicles to come through!
They were working as we arrived and they all seemed relieved for the back hoe to come! By hand it is really hard to get much done, but they had put strong arms into action! Thank you to each of you for praying for us as we work! This month will take more diesel fuel, thank you for giving to make this work possible!
