Day 9:

Today was one of the hardest days on record. We went to the work site for breakfast and hung out with our Hondurans brothers and sisters and played games with all the children. We had a small game of soccer with some of the guys, a couple of us took out a guitar and jammed some some worship songs with them. We held a church service/dedication in the new church building and there didn't seem to be a dry eye in the crowd. They sang some songs for us, we sang King of Glory for them, and we sang Open the Eyes of my Heart Lord in both English and Spanish simultaneously. Pastor Gerardo and Pastor Herman gave the sermon and we cried some more. After that we ate some lunch (spaghetti!) and then we took a short drive to the community pool in the mountains where we and the Hondurans hung out, celebrated a few birthdays with some cake and soda and said some sorrowful goodbyes. The mood was very somber and the ride home without our friends was quiet and reflective. Some of actually felt physically sick after having such a emotional day. The Hondurans kept telling us that even though they may never see us again, they look forward to spending time with us again in Heaven. We will never forget them. They will remain in our hearts and prayers forever.


Day 10 : We drove to get some souvenirs in Progresso, Honduras. We ate some Pizza Hut, and then drove to our resort where we have been relaxing ever since. We are so blessed to have this time of rest and reflection. Everyone is healthy and processing the wonderful and intense week and a half that we have experienced. Thank you so much for praying for us, we look forward to seeing you all soon!!!
