Family Profile - House Number One

Sponsor: Dr. Mike Budincich - http://www.drbud.com

This was a very exciting weekend! Both homes and latrines were built with a diverse  group of people working hard together.  Dr. Budincich raised the money necessary to build both a house and latrine and brought with him patients and staff from his Pasadena Chiropractic office.  After all of this, he still provided a very complete outdoor portable television projection system.  After a hard day of home building, Dr. Budincich and others, showed the Life of Christ for children video in the community. There was a large turnout for the screening.
