In one of our previous posts, we mentioned that Mission Friend members will fix up a room for Lily (a member of Mission Friend who will live on the property to help the residents living in that house). After taking a closer look, it was decided that because of the faulty condition of the “proposed room”, it would be safer to build a separate room for Lily. On the seventh day of their stay in Ukraine, Vitaliy and Vova started building a one-room house. They bought all the material the evening before, and they started building the next morning. There was a delay due to a power outage in the village of Blagoveshchenka, so the construction took a little longer than expected. Nevertheless, with the help of Denis and Alex (who lives in the second house in the village of Blagoveshchenka), they finished a one-room house before the members of Mission Friend returned to America. Vitaliy and Denis even spent the night in this room through the Sabbath to have church service with the residents and the villagers.

After finishing painting the windowsills and gluing the wallpaper in the kitchen, Angela and Alina helped with the last touches of the one-room house.
