Friday Bibles and Scholars: On Friday we visited some of our scholars at the school in Colonia Pedroza. Pictures of those scholars in a group are above this post. In addition we finished passing out the last of 4000 Bibles that were brought to Honduras through Brians inititive. Early in the week We gave 500 Bibles to the Prison in San Pedro Sula and 500 to the Prison in La Ceiba. We gave another 500 to an extremely Evangelistic Group. Today we loaded up our truck and parked in front of the Parque Central and gave away approximately 3200 Bibles over a period of 30 minutes. It is amazing how hungry the Honduras are for the word.
The Pictures for this post are

On Wednesday nite we had dinner at the home of Romain and Marie Elena, our friends who take us to the mountain. We had a real treat for dinner, ceviche with yucca and crisp fried green platinos.
On Thursday we traveled at 5:00 A.M. in the morning to Quis Camote, the Village of Indians in the Mountians. We ate breakfast at a small rustic cafe in the mountains where cooking is still done over wood and the coffee is boiled in a pan and then the grounds are strained out. We took about 3000 lbs of food and distributed it to the families and we also took some clothing and shoes. Stan played carry out boy and helped elderly ladies get the food home. Steve, Stan Paul and Bill got busy dividing up rice, beans and corn flour along with soup and pasta and several other food items. Sherry, Brenda and Kathy handed out clothing and shoes and spent time with the children.

Trip to SiguaetequeBernie, Stan, Jim, myself, and our interpreter Robert spent the last few days helping Pastor Oscar and his wife Glenda to build classrooms for their church. They are a wonderful loving family and were very hospitable to us. We tasted many wonderful local Honduran foods and drinks. Our foreman, Osman was very patient with us as he taught us about masonry. The village of Siguaeteque was beautiful and peaceful and the people were very friendly to us. There is still much work to be done on the construction site, but we helped them to get a good start on the job. We have been blessed to serve in the name Jesus here and I know that each of us have been touched by their generosity and their love for Jesus. We'll see everyone soon and will share more amazing stories from Honduras!
