Second day on the job...

We started the day off with more great devotion and jumped in the vans for the site. Upon arrival we all jumped to work on the site in the hot morning sun.

The septic tank has come along but was still only half way to 12 feet.


We took a quick pause to eat some fritas – fried pancake discs topped with syrup… they were great! The sisters in the kitchen work so hard to feed us – along with the workers there has to be 75 people to feed twice a day…

Of course dish duty is no small task after each meal either…


Work continued on the site as some of us began to prepare for VBS… The puppet stage is a tricky task each year… this time was no different…


VBS was awesome, about 80 kids came for songs, games, and a bible story brought by the puppets, the laughter and joy in their eyes blesses us so much…

After the story and some prayer time we did a craft to help them remember the details of the story…
even the older boys got into the craft which was so cool to see…


Back at the site we saw much progress as the heat of the afternoon wore on us. The pulpet got buit as the floor was leveled.

The horizontal support columns got poured to dry overnight…

the kids dug all day and still the septic tank wasnt 12 feet deep - What a chore!

It’s so great to work side by side with our Honduran brothers and sisters… Glory to God it was a good day!

Hi Bryan, What precious faces to gaze upon at your VBS. Praying the Lord will open their hearts to His TRUTH. You all keep safe in your labor for the Lord.
Blessings, Aunt Jane & Uncle Charlie
