Week One - Youth for Christ Camp

Beautiful Mountains in San Pedro Sula

Day four already! We have been working hard at the Youth for Christ camp in La Entrada. We are working with a youth group from a Christian boarding school in South Dakota - and we are having a BLAST! We came to the nearby town today to access the internet and go to the bank to exchange some money. We will be staying at the camp through Sunday morning and then heading off to our next destination! We don't have long to post - but here are a few pictures from our last few days in Honduras!
Youth For Christ Camp Dog - Hershey
An Aussie like our Macie Moo - he has been attached to our hip!

Shoveling dirt to make a wall near the Youth for Christ main building
Daniel and Laramie - AKA "Cowboy" from SD :)

Preparing VBS stuff for this week - we have had 50 kids come to the camp
from a village where families live on less than $1000 annually.

Daniel and Rick - our "boss" :)
This is from earlier today - we moved tons of stones from the creek
at the YFC camp to fill in the trenches for the roads coming in.
We will hopefully be posting again soon - I have tons of other pictures that I want to share but this trip to town was very short ... so I left you with a few of our favorites :)  We love you ALL so much and we are so thankful for your love, prayers and support.  Please continue to pray for the Lord to put a hedge of protection around us while we are here - physically and emotionally.  Neither one of us have been sick yet - knock on wood ;)   Some of the team members have been down and out with stomach issues - even our bossman  ... guess we are just the lucky ducks!

Love you ALL! 

1 Peter  3:15
 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,

Laura - Miss seeing you at our "smile stations" each morning so it is good to see your joyful smile in pictures!Have had you and Daniel in my heart and prayers since you left. I am so proud of you and can't wait to hear all of the details in person! I am lifting you and Daniel up in prayer every time you come to mind during the day, which is quite frequently since I think of you whenever I use the fancy key chain you gave me. I know that you will bless your new friends just as you have blessed me! I love you and miss you.
