Today was Day 1 of the Christ Community work team here in Peru. They are helping build a desperately-needed bath complex with 12 showers, and 8 toilets at our camp about 1 hour outside of Arequipa. At times we have over 200 people at camp using one bath complex and the lines can be long! Every year we have bigger and bigger groups wanting to use the camp. 
I am so proud of the team as they are such hard workers. Each of the guys make me look like a wimp! I think the Peruvian foreman is amazed at how much they got done on the first day. (We ran out of some materials) A huge pile of heavy rocks was converted into the entire foundation of the complex in one day. The camp directors have warned me they need to slow down or they will get sick, but I've pointed out that several are construction workers, one just got out of the army and they come from Nebraska where they are enjoying 97-degree heat! I think they'll be just fine, though the hardest part might be the cold showers!
