I got started on the beds today! Praise the Lord, I will be able to deliver them myself, I'm pretty sure, BUT its costing more then we'd hoped so change the website, its $30 each, and that doesn't include the somethingthat I should give the tailors at the school that are helping. Since we are in Kitgum, its impossible to find beds that have the plastic on them already, so by CHANCE, we found the material and the tailors will be sewing the plastic on the mattresses. The mattresses alone cost $15 (this is one of the thinner types) and the material to cover them with costs 2.50 a yard, and you need 4 yards for each bed.. I purchased 10 already and I think that will be plenty but I'm sure the more the merrier.. (that means 19 or 20 beds for 35 kids but the older kids share with their younger siblings anyway) and the babies share the beds. Otherwise if more money then necessary DOES come in, I can get more, or help them with something else.. clothes? Something useful. Anyway, I put it on my status on facebook and let a couple friends know so hopefully we'll get more in! Very excited to see what God will do! miss you much!
