Brief Weekend Wrap-up

Our group spent part of the weekend traveling to and from Copan. Half the group chose to see the ruins in the early afternoon. Eight of us went to Macaw Mountain later and 6 did the zip line Sunday morning. We ate at Carnita's for supper Saturday night, where the lights went out again! On Sunday afternoon we went to Gracias a Dios to say our final goodbyes. Pastor Juan read a letter to our group and gave gifts to everyone (and one IOU!). There were gifts given from various families to members of our group. Personally, it was a very moving and humbling experience. It was extremely hard to finally let go of the kids and climb back in the van. There were many tears. This is a special community to so many of us. They are examples of Jesus in the flesh- humble, loving, giving.
