Back Home

After a wonderful retreat at the Valle de las Angels, it's time to get back to work

I know that the LORD is great, that our God is greater than all gods. Psalm 135:5

Back home in Siguatepeque

We had a wonderful visit in El Salvador with new friends. We only planned to stay for just the weekend, but had car troubles about an hour inside the El Salvador border.

We were indeed blessed to have our friend Geraldo's brother-in-law, Stanley, come pick us up. Thank-you, GOD!!!!

The city of San Salvador is very clean and is somewhat modeled after the city of Miami, Florida. Downtown has big shopping malls with modern parking garages that have elevators. All in all, it was a great visit, especially with our new friends.

Noah's Baptism

Noah’s baptism was yesterday and it was so endearing to hear his testimony.

We had a large crowd from church to witness his proclamation.

Tegucigalpa

Mark Patterson and I took a trip to Tegucigalpa last Monday. We had to buy a few items for MEDA. We also stopped by an electrical shop whose owners implied they would give us a discount if we shopped their store. They were very generous to MEDA and we plan to shop there frequently.

House Plans

We received some bad news from our contractor regarding the house by the river. It was our intention to rehab the house to save money but the contractor says it has to be totally demolished and rebuilt from scratch. Foundation, walls and roof are crumbling after many years of vacancy. The foundation was not properly constructed and would not hold the weight of our proposed remodel plan. The good news is we get to design our own floor plan from scratch which means a more “open” floor plan as opposed to the maze of rooms we originally were trying to work with.

Winter Wonderland

Here we are on furlough in the beautiful north woods of Wisconsin.
