Good Things Are Happening

The busy summer season is upon us. Gayle Davidson's group is here. They are building house, distributing food and doing medical clinics. Terry Reeves arrives with 106 people on Friday, followed by our Kansas group on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. We will continue to see groups come and go through August 8. So many good things will happen because the groups are here.

In addition to the groups, other great things are happening as well. The relocation project by the city has begun. Four families have already been moved out of Reparto. The new houses were built and the city went in and moved the families and their belongings and demolished the old houses the same day. The lady with the boulder in her house was weeping for joy as she was moved.

The rice shipment, for which we have been waiting, finally arrived. This rice is vitamin fortified. There are 300,000 servings of rice. Most of this will be used in the new feeding center in Santa Katarina. But some of it will go other places as well. There are plenty of hungry people here, so it will all be put to good use.

We also have a shipment of soup and a shipment of beans on its way. Again, this will be used to feed some of the hungriest in Honduras.

Thanks to all who had a part in shipping the food containers or are part of a group this summer. You are making a difference in Honduras this summer.
