Doubled Blessed


Mike and I are so excited to get our special friend, Sarah along with her mother Debby down to Honduras.  Sarah has been waiting for six years to come Honduras when she turned 16 years old.  She shared in devotions on the first evening she did not feel she was equipped to build a home and she was a little apprenshive about the task ahead.  But when getting to the project Sarah was anytjing but apprenhesive.  She got in there and did what ever was needed to get done.  She along with her mother Debby was especially interested in the well being of Flo the wife and homeowner.  Flo will be nine months on the 15th of August.  We are in August in case you are reading this much later.  Flo was about to explode and she was all baby.  Debby did not know flow knew it was going to be a little girl.  So Debby checks her out and looks at that big tummy and says she is going to have a little girl.  I said you are right because they already know. Sarah was intrigued about the subject because like here mother who is a Registered Nurse she is thinking of going into medicine herself.  So these two along with Meida of course enjoyed finding out the ends and out of Flo's pains and discomforts.  They were joyful throughout the whole week together.  What great memories these two ladies are making together this week.  We love ya'll so much!!!


Welcome, welcome Dale and his grandson, Luca, who Luca like Sarah has waited for two years to come to Honduras.  He wanted to come last year but was not quiet old enough. Dale shared how he came up to us each year we came to visit our family in Maryland and greeted us with a smile and handshake along with everyone else.  He heard our stories several times but until you come here you truly cannot see the blessings Mike and Ginger are talking about.  These people are beautiful and he was grateful when Luca was of age to come and experience this with him.  Luca was amazing on the job site.  He jumped him ready to serve the Lord wherever and however he could.  He learned quickly the tasks around him.  Dale said he was so very proud of Luca and all he was getting to learn and do.  His willingness to serve made Dale so very proud of him. Mike has enjoyed sharing and getting to know Dale while I have enjoyed chatting with Luca about each day and how much he is enjoying his stay here in Honduras.  Luca did an amazing job on his devotional out 2 John 7-10 where we should take what we learn here and carry back home with us and do it there as well.  We should come here prepared to learn from our new friends and be able to apply it to our daily lives.  Mike and I have also fallen in love with two more special folks from our home church in Maryland.
