New Roof @ El Transito!
La Fraternidad in El Transito looks like a new school thanks to donations from both WCS and Missionary Ventures which totaled $27,745. I’ve attached some pictures from Eric’s and my visit. Below is a link to additional pictures.

The new construction was well thought out with the objective to prevent a large wind storm from destroying the school again. As you will see from the pictures any roof overhangs were closed up to prevent the wind from catching it underneath. Even the front of the school is designed to help protect the school from large wind storms. They have learned that they could not build the school in the same way and have a new design that will last.
Despite these many improvements the school is not yet complete. There are no more funds available, the reason why the front of the school is half done. They actually still owe $900 in labor for the project because those who worked on the school were willing to wait for their money so that they had more money for materials.
