Sunday "Down Day"
Today was rainy and cooler. The construction crew was bemoaning the fact that it would have been the best day to work without the heat.
We headed to San Pedro Sula in the morning to go to the craft market. Then lunch at Pizza Hut and headed to the airport to pick up Nancy. Nancy´s flight came in a little late but she had no problems. We headed back to the mission house in yet another rental van, #3!! Mary, the team coordinator is handling the van situation well, but we can see it is wearing her down. To review, the first red van lost brakes (and was overheating) on Friday and the second "fancy van" was not prepared to travel the mountain roads to get to the communities. The latest van (which I have a feeling it will not be the last!) is older, with tight seats but seems to have decent power. Stay tuned for the continuation of "the van saga".
We all are tired tonight....maybe the weather or not doing much....early to bed to get ready for the busy week ahead. Please pray for strength for the construction crew and for a good day for the medical clinic. Also pray for Mary as she handles all the team and clinic planning...it will be a stressful, tiring week for her.
We all continue to be in good health.
Thanks to all,
Barb for the team

You are all in our prayers! We look forward to hearing more of the "van saga". Hopefully no more crazy stories of no brakes! Sometimes those old clunkers can surprise you...we will hope for the best! Take care!
Thinking of you all and glad everything is going well--"HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to Mark tomorrow (18th).
