Friday afternoon

Just a quick post to let everyone know we have made it to San Pedro Sula. Here is the first thing Scott and I did when we got here...found a cold water. 

Friday update

IWe have left Marcala and all of our Latin American friends. Our side trip was to the zoo. To be honest, I was not expecting much. It was awesome!  Several of us went down the zip-line. Here is that group. 

The rest either went on a tram ride or just walked around taking in the sites. 

Here is Robbie after we got back. 

Here are some more pics from the zoo trip. 

We ate lunch there and are now on our way to the market for a short stop before going to the hotel. 

More later...

Thursday night

First of all, let me say how proud I am to be a part of this work. I am also proud to be a part of the South Green St group. Whenever there was something that needed to be done, you could count on someone from our group jumping in. What a blessing. 

We finished the week with 51 baptisms!  That is incredible!!  There were even more studies going on this evening. 

Here is a brief recap of the afternoon. 

We finished up at the clinic this afternoon and started the task of breaking down the  equipment. That was finished in short order. At 5, we had services and classes. We ate supper around 6:30 and then began to clean up in the kitchen.

We said our goodbyes to the local members and then headed to the hotel. These goodbyes were like most others; lots of hugging, last minute pictures, and pats on the back. I am going to miss those smiling faces. 

We are scheduled to leave the hotel in Marcala at 5:30 am. Should be an interesting day. 

Here are a few pictures from today. 

Guys in the town square.

Thursday update

I forgot to mention the most important detail in my earlier post. 

Yesterday, we had 14 baptisms!!  That brings the total to 40 so far this week. I added a couple of pictures earlier from baptisms. 

I will post more later on. 

Thursday morning

Hard to believe but this is the last day for the clinic. The week has gone by fast. I have worked on everything from a pair of glasses to a wheelchair. We have filled several hand washing water bags and taken out a ton of trash. We still have today to get as much done as possible. 

Here are a few pictures from yesterday. 

Here are some shots from the children's class. 

School visits

Several of the teens have been going out to the local schools and sharing bible stories with different classes. Today, the school was too far away for the group to walk so I drove the van. Here are some pictures of the group.
