A Good Busy Day

Like most mornings, we started early, leaving in both cars around 7:30. We went to the warehouse and were joined by a small group that helped us make sandwiches for the dump. At the same time we were making sandwiches, a truck was being loaded with some of the hospital equipment and supplies from Hunger Plus. The truck was going to San Pedro Sula and was much needed there.

The sandwich people and the equipment people finished near the same time. Marc and the group left for the dump to feed hungry people and they were very hungry today. A driver left for San Pedro Sula and I left to do errands. The bank, the pharmacy, the hardware store for a needed item for school, another pharmacy. I learned a new word in spanish today. Ringworms. It was one we all could have lived without knowing.

I ran errands until it was time to get Rosy.

People fed. Hospitals getting needed equipment. Doesn't get much better than that.

Well ringworms, another household name where there are children. I am assuming your daughter is a ok after the accident. I cannot imagine how helpless you must have felt when you got that phone call. My heart goes out to you for our childrens heartachs and troubles is hard on us. You have many ups and downs emotionally. Stay well so they do not get you down. linda

Terri,
Hey you don't sugar coat the struggles you have with children with ring worms, do you? Thank you for sharing everything in your missionary life.

Praying for you as you face each day with a smile on your face.

It has to be so hard to deal with the concept of WELCOME TO HONDURAS!

Danger. Hot. Crowded. Loneliness. Insecurity. Discomfort. Poverty. Frustration. Sickness. Constant noise. Lack of privacy. Spiritual warfare. Misunderstandings. Inconveniences.

THANK YOU FOR BEING NUTS ENOUGH TO SUBJECT YOURSELF TO ALL THAT BECAUSE YOU WANT TO HELP SO MANY.

PRAYERS,
GINGER

Thank you for sharing and caring!
