Anyway the point of the trip was to go pick up two of the interns Abby and Joseph who are really nice. The team is coming together so far we have: me, Cristina King (Dora), Abby, Joseph, Janell, Kristina Dykes, and Evan. I think we have one more intern to meet today her name is Hannah Spargo. Those names don't mean much to most of you, but that is who I will be spending my entire summer with. We have already started bonding and I thank God for every person on this team because I can tell each person was put here for a reason and we get along so well!
I just want to take a min to describe Honduran traffic to you...picture you are on a two way mountain road...one lane going one way and one lane going the other way...in Honduras if you don't like the lane you are currently in for whatever reason you just go into the other lane of traffic pump the gas until you see another car coming head on (usually a semi) then you honk franticly to get back over before a certain death comes! It really sound scary but the people here are so good at it! I kinda enjoy it not going to lie (mom you would hate it you would be screeching like no other and pressing that passenger side that doesn't exist really hard).
And finally the the low down for this coming week. Today we leave at 10:30 our time to go to the airport to pick up the team from Florida. We will be leaving from the airport to the village Guinope. We will be there building houses roofs and leading bible studies and VBS type camps all week. We leave Guinope Thursday and will arrive back at the mission house Thur. night. So that means after I leave this morning I will not have contact with anyone...no internet...no text free...I am sad but it is going to be a good time to grow closer to God and really pray for Him to take control!
I will miss all of you so much but I will hopefully be able to blog Thursday night or Friday morning a week from now! Know that I am praying for you all and that you are soooo missed! Love you guys thanks for your prayers I know God is answering them because He has been so present this week.
