Home Safely!

After returning to Lydia's on Saturday afternoon the team went to Comunion Church for a visit with the sponsored kids from Comunion, Aqua Blanca and Santa Rosa. It was a wonderful experience for all and the kids were all so appreciative of their gifts. Many wanted to thank their sponsors in person and wish that someday that they could meet them.
Sunday, July 25th
The mission team attended church at Comunion where our own Tim Snyder preached another awesome service. His focus was on the family and that "all things are possible with God". A surprise visitor came with his son to the service....Mr. Ruiz (the government minister for persons with disabilities). Pastor Cesar met with the team after church to discuss all the mission opportunities for Comunion church...where they've been and where they want to go. After church, the team enjoyed lunch at Pizza Hut and the famed "Extremo" for dessert! We went back to Lydia's to change and go to the Valley of Angels for a little shopping. While at the Valley of Angels the bottom dropped out and some of us got soaking wet! On the way back to Tegucigalpa, we stopped to see where Julio's house was being built. He and Sarah are getting married on August 14th...finally!
The day concluded with a wonderful dinner at El Patio enjoyed by the team, translators and Pastor Cesar's family. It is hard to believe our time in Honduras is coming to an end.
Monday, July 26th
The team left Honduras with mixed emotions...sad to leave our friends in Honduras but anxiously excited to be back with our friends and family at home. I know one team member that sure did miss his two girls...in Honduras and at home! Our Honduran friends gathered at the airport for one last goodbye and the team traveled home safely even after a long,long delay in Atlanta. Don't worry friends, we will be back....
