Team 109- Edgewood Baptist -Winston-Salem

This was a week full of blessings in all aspects. The last day is always so precious and emotional. You come here to serve in a village like this and the church members assist in going door to door and you build relationships over the five or so days. The Honduran people are very compassionate and caring people. They appreciate all we do for them and it shows and how hard they work beside our teams. Pastor Brom, of the Honduran church was given a bible by Shawn, the team leader and pastor. The affection of these people is very humbling. The excitement of the children over two cookies and a cup of juice each day was overwhelming. We have so much and they are so grateful for just a little. Thank you God for always teaching me daily how to be like you. The church members take the children home each Sunday in the back of this pick-up truck to keep them safe. The church is off of a main road and it could be somewhat dangerous walking down the road. They all threw up their hands and shouted Adious as they went down the highway. It was the sweetest sight I have seen in a long time. What a beautiful way to end a beautiful week with the truck full of God's children. Thank you Edgewood for blessing this community with your commitment to come and serve in Honduras. Once again to God be the glory for all things this week.
