Day of Prep & Settling In

Woke to a beautiful sunny day!  (Some a little earlier to make coffee at 3:30am-wonder who?). First task was emptying suitcases and sorting donations. We walked over to MAMA's nutrition center for a tour and then visited our friend Eddie's house under construction.

We enjoyed a special lunch "with a view" at a beautiful restaurant high above Lake Yojoa. Everyone had the whole fish meal (head to tail on your plate).  Of course every day here includes packing pills!!  That was how we spent our afternoon.

Tomorrow we will take suitcases full of clothes, shoes, toys, beanie babies to the community.  We have micronutrient powder packed in family size bags. The staff is packing eyeglasses, and a portable pharmacy of meds.

The cement crews are lined up and ready to go. Our "cement crew angel"Karen, will leave a care package in each home of kitchen towels, toys and snacks.

The nutrition center has room to invite families with children at risk for malnourishment so we will be on the lookout for these cases and also Children Without Choices medical cases.

Pray for Day 1 tomorrow as everyone gets into routine. We will have a Honduran doctor, nurse, and dentist with us to see patients. Pray for stamina for our cement crew as they bless at least 6 families w new concrete floors. Pray for travel safety and that we may be a blessing to everyone we meet tomorrow.
Barb for the team.
