4:30 am...We leave for the airport...blurry eyed and with croaky voices. But we were pumped! Not enen Monday morning airport rush, severe lack of sleep or sitting on a cramped plane all morning could keep our smiles away! The wait was worth it. We joined the rest of our team for lunch at a very authentic Honduran restraurant..."Church's"!
What a shocking contrast we faced after lunch! We went from the wealth of Atlanta to the lack of resources in the village known as Nueva Oriental. That is where we got to play with the children. Precious babies and joyful young boys and girls, everywhere! Spreading Gold's love to them with toys, hugs and games was wonderful.
I am so excited to build these beautiful people homes and see more of God's work in us as well as in them.
