June 27 and 28

Hello everyone!!  I hope you are doing well.  We are doing very well here in Honduras.  So far, it’s been a great work.  On Saturday we had two teams, a construction team and a food break down team.  We also had a small group go to the open market to purchase fresh fruit and vegetables.  The Keys group returned home also, and we miss them very much.  A group of 12 also arrived to finish out the next few days with the group.  We started with breakfast that consisted of pancakes and toast.  After breakfast the construction team loaded the bus to be dropped off at the site.  The Keys group gathered things to put on the second bus to be taken to the airport.  The food breakdown team began breaking the food down and putting them into bags to be delivered.  About the time they finished the small group that went to the market came back and we unloaded the materials to sort through.  Some went to Didiasko and the rest went to the Special needs orphanage.  The bus arrived at about 11:45, so we loaded to head toward Didasko.  We stopped for gas and to get snacks for VBS as well.  We arrived at Didasko around 1:30 and began VBS for the kids.  Afterward, the children had a craft and snack to do.  When VBS was over we played with the children until about 3:45.  We loaded the bus and went to the supermarket to get a few things before coming up the mountain for dinner.  The construction crew had a great build on Saturday.  They built a home in Diamante.  Typically, in Diamante you have to dig through solid rock, but the crew said they did not have any problems with rocks.  They returned to the mission house around 3:30.  After everyone had returned, we had dinner.  We had chicken, pico, potatoes, and chips.  After dinner we met for Devo and after devo we celebrated Jenny Lovell and Konner’s birthday.  We had cobbler, cake and guacamole.  We all went to bed between 9 and 10:30 to be rested for worship the next morning.

On Sunday, the group had breakfast around 7:00.  We had cereal, eggs, fruit and toast.  After breakfast we said goodbye to Katie and Konner who went back home.  Around 8:30, we loaded the buses to head out to Diamante for worship.  At Diamante we were able to worship with our brothers and sisters.  Two people were baptized yesterday. After worship, we loaded the buses and went to Mi Esperanza to do some shopping for a good cause.  We spent a couple hours there, then loaded the buses to go to the Valley Angels for lunch and to do some more shopping.  We left the Valley around 5:30 to come back to the mission house for dinner.  We had Taco Loco for dinner.  It was really good.  After dinner we had devo in the chapel.  We sang for a while then Jeremy said a few words before our closing prayer.  After devo we had announcements for tomorrow and headed to bed.

Thank you all for your prayers.  Please continue to pray for the work here.  We love you and will see you soon.
