Good progress has been made in the past two weeks. Huge amounts of earth have been moved around and dug up around the CEF property. We would have never imagined that so much would have gone into the construction of our boundary fence which is going to be beautiful!
Workers discovered that the soil was extremely wet which then led to the discovery of a broken water pipe which had to be repaired. The foundations have been dug and the concrete was poured in on Friday, Feb 12th. Block layers were able to begin their work on Saturday, Feb. 13th and put in at least 250 blocks.
On Monday of this week, the workers will again be pouring the foundation for the retaining wall / fence along the road side of the property. It measures 64 meters (210 feet) in length! It's thrilling to see this progress being made. In that the CEF property is on the main thoroughfare leading into our city, everyone who's passed by has noticed the piles of blocks, the mound of dirt and busy construction workers. We were told today in church that "so many people are talking about what's happening at the CEF office". That's great news for us! Workers are aiming to complete the boundary fence by the first of April.
