Rebekah asked for a pic of her Dad and Mr. Beard in their overalls because they are cute...Mr Kevon says he dosen't need overalls to be cute!


The family that we built for - Roberta, Rosa, Veronica and baby Carla


What a wonderful time we had in Mexico!! It was my first time out of the country. The lifestyle there is so very different from ours. We are so blessed. Four 20 x 16 homes were built in a weeks time, and the families were all so deserving. We have many stories to share and how this trip has change each of our lives forever. Charles and His wife Reyna are pastors in the church we attended. Grace of Giving provides Charlie with food for his family and those in his church. Charlie helps Greg Beard in selecting the families that we build for. In three years, Grace of Giving has built 9 houses in Acuna!!

I am so proud of y'all for what you are doing. I can not imagine living in their "current housing" and the new house does look like a Barbie house. I know that God will bless you for helping these people!!!
