The day has been wonderful, long, hot, and filled with blessings.
Our Sunday was spent in two ways. Those of our team who had been in Honduras before on previous teams visited a remote congregation where a new church, built with funds from Louisiana, has been opened. First timers went with me and my Honduras "bodyguard" David to the famous archaelogical site in Copan Ruinas.
In the afternoon, our entire group reunited for an early dinner and a trip to the town where our mission work is focused during this visit. In Chalmeca I celebrated the liturgy in Spanish, and my long-time friend and colleague from Louisiana days Fr Roman Roldan preached a great sermon from Galatians. It felt like home since at Christ Church we've heard a lot of St Paul to the Galatians in the pulpit lately!
Heavy rain and darkness required us to make a quick departure from the parish to get us home safely. In the hotel, the internet service was spotty at best during the storm. Today thing are much better.
The work began on the concrete floor in the church under construction, the sewing workshop is underway, and the Bible School in the afternoon was a delight. I'll post pictures tomorrow of all these ministries that you are part of through your prayers and gifts that have made the trip possible. More news tomorrow.
