He demonstrates insulated construction material

Saul Cruz Ramos is the director of Armonia Ministries in Mexico. Here he is demonstrating insulated siding to be used in the new student residence in Oaxaca, Mexico. This provides strength and insulation against heat and cold. This student residence is scheduled for completion in the fall, hopefully in time for the school term to begin. Armonia has purchased land several miles outside of the city of Oaxaca. In the meantime the students, about 40 in number, are living in a rented residence in Oaxaca. In the last several years, nine students have been admitted to Universities in Mexico City having completed High School while living in student residences supported by and closely supervised by Armonia. For me this is the most exciting program that Armonia has undertaken because it provides a pathway for indigenous Indian children from the mountains of Mexico to become educated and have a chance for a productive life. Without this education they have no hope of progress.
