Buenos Dias!

Good morning, everybody!

Today is the last day of our trip, and tomorrow morning we will leave bright and early for the airport. It's been an amazing journey so far! We've painted a lot of desks, tables, and window slats (as well as a few school uniforms, but we tried REALLY hard to keep the kids away from everything), met the mayor of La Paz, been involved in two television shoots, shared God's story of love with upwards of 50 kids and some of their parents, met Pastor John and Renee Lehenbauer, played many hours of games with the kids, and eaten lots of beans and rice.

Today, as Steven said, we'll be off to the market in the morning, and we'll be sure to return in time for the Baptismal service at 2 PM (3 PM Eastern time). Other than that, our day is pretty unstructured, although Mama Doris is having another television interview in the morning that will be broadcast in many neighboring cities, including the Honduran capital Tegucigalpa!

Thank you all so much for your prayers and support while we've been down here. The looks in the eyes of these children as they play with us and laugh with us and hug us is truly indescribable, and the unconditional love that has bound us together in spite of our language barriers is a beautiful real-life picture of heaven breaking through right here on earth. Everyone here is so happy to see us, and God's work here is having a tremendous impact on the community. Did I mention that the city of La Paz is donating something like 600 or 800 pounds of food to the Foundation? People are starting to take notice of what God is doing in this place! And none of it would be possible without your prayers and support of this mission.

Please pray for the work that's being done here, as well as for the children who live here and the adults who work here, that God may be glorified in every corner of this place. Please also pray for us, as we say many tearful goodbyes to the children and fly back to the United States, that we would have a safe journey and that our lives back home would be changed by our time here. Thank you again so much, and God's blessings!

-In Christ,
