We arrived after unloading the Kia and getting the corners set to a balada snack for the whole team. The North American was in the work mode and I shouted, "You guys need to come eat these while they are warm." Brian shouted back, "How are we going get this home built if we stop to eat a snack." As he said these words, he stopped and they all came over for a very delicious snack which was provided each morning for whomever wanted it. Like I said in the last post these construction guys had to switch gears and slow down the pace a little and enjoy the hospitability of the these beautiful Honduran people. Mike and I have been year finishing twelve years and we still are in awe of how generous they are with what they have and want to share it with us. I believe it was Garrett who shared one evening the hospitality was something we all could take home with us. It was genuine and giving he shared. The level of poverty here is only materialistic one team member shared but their level of community and spirituality is what we need to learn from and take home with us. This phrase in this bible verse speaks volumes of the people of Honduras. Amen y amen.
