Sunday in Honduras

Sunday in Honduras took us to Santa Ana to attend church with the Casa Kids and the people that live in the surrounding area.  The church is on the same property as Casa de Esperanza.  As usual the kids were pretty excited when they saw us all sitting in the church.  They sat with us until it was time for them to go to Sunday School.....the service was pretty awesome for us.  A little frustrating as it was ALL in Spanish but it was fun to hear the songs and feel the enthusiasm the preacher had in his sermon.

After church we went over and visited a few minutes with the Casa kids and then we were off to lunch. We ate at Cafe El Gringo.  This is a small cafe type setting run by Byron who is from the States and his Honduran wife, Pamela.  All the monies from the cafe go into his ministry that he is working diligently to create.  The food was awesome and the smoothies were amazing.

Then we were back at Casa for an evening of fun with the kids.  Trampoline and soccer appear to be two of the favorite things to do....but every kid had some hugs and loving from our team.

I (Vicky) must say that I was extremely impressed with our team.  They were absolutely fantastic with the Casa kids and pretty much everyone left a piece of their heart at Casa today!

Our day however was not over....we came back and packed 120 food bags with shortening, coffee, sugar, pasta, pasta sauce, rice, beans and bouillon cubes. It was an amazing effort and the music and dancing just added to the speed of the team.
