Journal entry 15: 7/22/22

 






We had our last children's ministry today. It was a big one. About 100 kids. There were some wise crack boys that just reminded me that there is always those jokers in every kid group. They were so funny, making faces, cracking jokes, just having fun. When we split the group up and half were to go back to their class, and the other half stay with us, they tried to sneak with us and not go back to class! It was too funny when they got caught. The teachers made us coffee (the drink of choice in Honduras!) and some sugar donuts. Homemade! They were delicious. Sometimes we are on the receiving end of some yummy treats. 
We also got to meet the principal of the school. She is amazing. And so smart. She seems like a good teacher and leader for the kids. She took the time to talk with us and explain about the history of her school. 

They had a cool tree in their courtyard. I don't know what it is but it seems like I am so fascinated by strange looking trees. I think my friend Tammy has gotten me more in-tuned with nature and looking at our amazing world. These trees grow and survive in strange shapes. This shows to me that we are all different but just as important. 

Afterwards, we had some free time, and maybe a little nap tucked in there. While us ladies were spending some down time, the guys were working hard on the church. They got the trusses up on the roof with the help of a big crane! They were able to find someone with a crane and bring it to the work site to help get them up on the roof. This saved so much time and it was pretty exciting to see the crane on the street! Hopefully the roof will get finished tomorrow!

“So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.”

1 Thessalonians 5:11 NLT

Bendiciones,
