I'm sorry that I didn't write yesterday, but it was a long day. We started out at 7 AM without breakfast to head east to an area called "The ole wild west." We stopped on the road for brunch around 10. When we arrived after traveling on dirt roads for at least 10 miles or so, you would have thought nobody is coming to this service today. It is 12 noon when we start and before it is over, there were at least 65-70 people there. Where did they come from in the middle of a Thursday?
Mrs. Juanita (Bro. Bobby's wife) shared and sang. She is a very annointed lady in both her worship leadership and preaching. Jason and Shae Walton shared the messages from us. I only wish our interpreter could have shared Shae's emotion as she talked about how much Jesus loves you.
Several responded but only God knows what is in their heart.
There was a lady there who had a very badly infected and swallon hand. She attended to it as best we could and then prayed for her hand. Later, we determined she needed to go to the doctor so she rode back with us to a city for medical attention.
While Bro. Bobby and Mrs. Juanita took her to the doctor, we went shopping to get Jason and Jessica some clothes. Right - the suit cases have still not shown up. The lady then came on back with us becuase they will take her back to the doctor Monday to re-examine the hand. This city is at least two hours away.
When we got home, we were all tired; thus no communiction from me last night.
This morning finds acouple of our guys not feeling well - Mrs. Shae and Josh. I didn't think Shae was going to make it on the trip today but she is gone. Josh said he won't miss it either.
We all went to a local school here where Caleb goes. Jacob, Josh, and Jacob all spoke briefly and then I shared a message.
I returned back to the ministry center and all the rest of the crew have gone into the mountains for the afternoon. This is a trip unlike anything else you take while in Honduras. Since you have to go in the four-wheel drive truck, I chose to give an extra spot on the back. Yes, there are already 11 going.
We will have our last time with the children in the Children's Home late this afternoon and possibly a service with them tonight in the church here at the ministry center. Then it packing time for our return trip home tomorrow. We fly out at 12:20 and arrive back in Huntsville at 8:08.
