Maranatha in Honduras
Sent Wednesday, June 22, from Carroll Wynne:
Hi all,
This is our first chance to get on line. We arrived safely and were immediately taken up to the SU camp in Siguetapeque. The arrangements for our place is wonderful!! The house we worked on four years ago is completed
(the women are staying there) and the meeting place/cafeteria has bunk rooms for the men.
Our Monday was filled with schools...two in the morning with 200 students at the first and 650 at the second. The program of songs and YWAM´s Redemmer skit went well...but the craft was a bit more difficult. In the afternoon
we had two more schools each with 200 plus students. We were a bit tired for the prayer meeting in the evening.
Tuesday, after visiting two schools, we had a special opportunity. We were told to have one drama team get in the vehicles for a short drive...to the police academy where we did the Redeemer skit for 200 cadets!! Not
wanting to miss the opportunity, we asked if we could take our picture with them and so that will be an interesting picture! Wednesday was "only" three schools with 500 total. Tonight we have off.
Safety on the road is a prayer request as we are traveling up to an hour for many of the school clusters. Tomorrow we have a 2 1-2 hour drive with one school numbering 1,000. Since there are no speed limits, the highway is quite crazy with vehicles pulling out at all moments.
Everyone is quite healthy...except for a few who have had too much soda and too little sleep. Our team meeting last night was very good in Philippians 1. Pray as we are discovering the great opportunities here to simply love
children. Spanish is nearly improving...but laughter and smiles are our common language. No one is holding back, but all are entering into the fun.
Love to the church with a big "thank you" for making this trip happen for us. We are learning so much and have been told our interaction with the children and schools has been advancing the ministry of SU around the
countryside.
Love to All, Chewy (for the whole team)
