Construction begins..... Excavation, footing and foundation


The end result is the walls of our house...


Finally we got some reprieve and got out foundation walls in.



This rock is an important piece of our past and our future... It comes from the church of the Holy Sceptre, Jerusalem. This is one of the holiest sites for our Ethiopian Orthodox Church and it symbolizes for us that our home is founded on the rock of our church



The excavation went quickly.... As soon as we started footing, it got miserable...




We broke ground in November, not the best time but....
