Welcome Back

Well, I made it alive! I wish I could somehow describe the feeling of coming out of customs to see Karen (the pastors 9 year old daughter) run up and hug me with the biggest smile I have ever seen. It made the 2 and 1/2 hours of sleep totally worth it!
I´m exhausted. But driving in to Morazan while watching the neon orange sun set behind the mountains was incredible. It´s amazing how much God´s beauty is shown in His creation.
When I got back to Celenia´s house, the entire family (4 guests from America included) greeted me with hugs and smiles and cookies. Amazing cookies. And when I say whole family, I mean extended family and everything. Even the pet dog Gary looked excited to see me! Goodness I love this place. I wish I could bring every single person I know to Morazan so that they can experience it themselves.
It´s some kind of holiday here, so there is a carnival type thing at the end of the street! A ferris wheel that looks like it could be the death of me, and lots of food!

I´m back, and it´s wonderful.

  1. Well, I'm Glad the Lord has kept you safe in your journey albiet somewhat sleep deprived.
    I'm very proud of your compassion and love for the "work of service" the Lord has given you.
    Be safe and LISTEN to what the Lord is telling you. Make time to be still in the Lord and His word and He will reveal wonderful things.
    We are very proud of you and we love you.
