Saturday
Man, what a long and emotional day for all of us. It's hard saying goodbye to all those wonderful children. Especially those that you really fall head over heels in love with. Saying goodbye to Jim, Georgia, Lawrence, Mike and Marta is hard but different from the children, because the adults don't show the same emotion that the children do. When we were getting ready to leave, Jim had all the children gather around the team and Loyda and Bella prayed for our safe trip home as well as our health and all of our families. There is nothing that can compare to the love and innocence of a child when they pray to their father in heaven. We left at 8:30am and had one more experience of driving through Honduras, where stop lights and signs are just suggestions. We were so blessed to have Lawrence drive us around, because none of us could have survived without him. Silva and Rosa left today also but they were on a different airline than us. Kelly left Honduras for DFW on Friday and Dena talked to her while we were in Atlanta. She arrived home safe. Marc and Ana and their family will be in Honduras for 18 more days. Please keep them in your prayers as they minister to the children in the orphanage and the people of Honduras. We saw GOD work in awesome ways this week and we can't wait to share our pictures and experiences with all of ya'll. If you see or talk to anyone on the team, just ask about Honduras and expect to hear an earful. We are sure glad to be home we are getting ready to go to sleep in our own beds. I don't know about the rest of the team but my bed is a whole lot more comfortable than the hand made beds with thin foam mattresses at the orphanage. It is really 1:00am Sunday morning so Penny and I are going to bed now. Bye and love to everyone.
