Yesterday was windy, chilly, and foggy. Towards the end of the day, it was announced that Thursday would be a “Cold Day.” Here in Honduras it doesn’t snow. However, in the mountains it can get fairly cold (especially in the mornings). The school has no central heating system. So, when it gets to a certain temperature, school will be delayed or even cancelled. Today was originally on the schedule as a half-day, so the administration cancelled the entire day.
I spent the morning with Jen Wright, Karen Vaughan, and Christina (lady that works with the Mi Esperanza project). It was a blessing to have the arrival of Jen and Karen on Saturday. The two of them have made the incredible leap to come to Honduras. They have committed to working at the new orphanage in Santa Ana, which is being built right now. Can you imagine making such a decision? They have decided to commit to caring for and loving twenty children. I cannot even fathom such a depth of faith! Please, please, please keep these remarkable women and the children in your prayers. God is going to do amazing things. I cannot wait until December when we will see the beginning of an incredible time.
Around 1:30, Jen, Karen, and I picked up Katie and Dalton to drive out to Santa Ana. The work is unbelievable. Each week seems to be making tremendous progress. We worked with sand to make cement, picked up trash, and removed excess concrete from around the sidewalks.
The four of us girls picked up pizza on the way back to the Hines’ house. Tim picked up Campero’s chicken; we feasted tonight. After dinner, it is always good to have some good entertainment…Katie and Dylan had a discussion on who was stronger. Well, only a proper wrestling match would settle this. It depends on who you ask, but I say that Katie was the champion. :)
Love you all!
Jennifer
