Cooking from two different Cultures


This week there was alot of cooking going on at the job site and at the mission house. We had a few ladies who knew how to cook Hondruan dishes and we enjoyed some baleadas for breakfast one morning. We enjoyed bacon, eggs and grits each morning before heading out to the job site. But once they got to the job site they had the priviledge of watching and learing how to truly cook Honduran style. The Honduran workers were fed extra good this week. Like I said the community came together as well with the cooking as the construction. It reminded me of how the Amish people come together to help each other out when building a home. There may have been two different cultures cooking but it was all good eating that week. Thank you Honudran sisters and North American sisters for all the great and delicious meals. God is good all the time, even in the kitchen. It is really awesome to experience the culture in Honduras and learn more about how they prepare cook and clean up after feeding so many people. The Honduran ladies spent the entire morning preparing for there noon meal. They enjoyed each others fellowship. We never saw them in a rush or how perfect it had to be. They truly enjoyed preparing their meals with laughter and singing of hymns occassionly. The true presence of the Lord was in this place. The humble and dedicated servants we saw in the ladies of Cedena was breathtaking. As always we learn so much from our Honduran brothers and sisters and this time especially from the ladies. Such giving and serving hearts were in that place.
