Updating.

Here's a little update on what's happening. The Midland group has came and gone. I had a great time getting to know some more fantastic mission-hearted people. I can't believe how close we all got in just a week. It was hard watching them go back to the State. While they were here though, they held a VBS service for the kids in the evenings, which the kids absolutely LOVED. They had a blast doing crafts, watching a bible story be preformed by the group and the playing games. (You'll see pictures below) It was wonderful seeing their smiling faces. Also I had a visitor. Chris, a friend of mine from Camp His Way, had his spring break this past week and asked if he could come to Honduras. I asked Jorge and he said yes and so Chris came and visited for a few days. He brought some sunglasses for the kids which you'll see in a few pictures below. The kids had a great time with him and they still wear the sunglasses all the time. So much is happening, it's crazy. Everyday I learn something new from these kids. They are absolutely amazing. I can't ever think of the day I'll be leaving them. I don't have much time right now, but I promise I'll find some time to write and update you on everything. Thank you for your prayers and support. Until Next Time.

Question #3.

Question of the Day:

If you could have anything, like the newspaper and milk, be delivered to your door everyday what would it be? You're able to pick ANYTHING.

Also Another Question:

What is a life long lesson that you have learned in life?

I would really like your responses! But this gets you thinking. Enjoy.

Question #2.

Question of the Day:

If you were deaf and blind and knew that you would have only one hour to see and hear anything you wanted before going deaf and blind again. What would you see and hear?

A Challenge.

This chapter speaks so much to me and I wanted to share it with you but also I want to challenge you to memorize this Chapter for this month. Let it speak to you, believe it, mediate on it, and ask God to reveal to you what He wants to through these verses.

So the question is: "Do you accept?"

Psalm 139

For the choir director: A psalm of David.

O Lord, you have examined my heart
and know everything about me.
You know when I sit down or stand up.
You know my thoughts even when I’m far away.
You see me when I travel
and when I rest at home.
You know everything I do.
You know what I am going to say
even before I say it, Lord.
You go before me and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too great for me to understand!

I can never escape from your Spirit!
I can never get away from your presence!
If I go up to heaven, you are there;
if I go down to the grave,^[a] you are there.
If I ride the wings of the morning,
if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
even there your hand will guide me,
and your strength will support me.
I could ask the darkness to hide me
and the light around me to become night—
but even in darkness I cannot hide from you.
To you the night shines as bright as day.
Darkness and light are the same to you.

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.

How precious are your thoughts about me, O God.
They cannot be numbered!
I can’t even count them;
they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up,
you are still with me!

O God, if only you would destroy the wicked!
Get out of my life, you murderers!
They blaspheme you;
your enemies misuse your name.
O Lord, shouldn’t I hate those who hate you?
Shouldn’t I despise those who oppose you?
Yes, I hate them with total hatred,
for your enemies are my enemies.

Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

Question #1:

Question of the Day:
If you had the time and money and could go on any month-long summer adventure of your choice, what would you choose to do?

Really think about this. If you could do ANYTHING! What would you do? I would love to hear your response so let me know! It’s interesting with all the different responses I will get to this question.

Work on the Clinic.

A group from Midland, Texas has come to Didasko this week to help work on one of the many Didasko projects, the new health clinic. That they are having built/remolded. The room, which the group and paid workers, that Jorge has hired, are changing what used to be a storage room, or at least that’s what it has been in the month that I’ve been here, into a Health clinic for when or if the kids get sick. They have to tear out all the tiles and bricks on the walls and floors. They already resized a window and put another one in and now they have to re-pour cement back on the floors. Things are very different in the State than they are here, when it comes to the cement, plus other things. The workers mix the cement on the ground. Once the cement is mixed they shovel it into a wheel-barrow and then pour the cement in the place that they want it and level everything out with the certain tools they use. It’s so interesting to watch, and I’m really learning while watching.
The group of eight is working so hard, it’s amazing. They have gotten so much accomplished and its only been a day! The floor is all out and so are the wall bricks, and now they are putting cement back in. Rhonda told me something that one of the workers said the other day that I think is funny. (Warning!! it’s better when Rhonda says it) Suyapa said, “Rhonda, the women that come here to help, work like men! (Or something around that) I have to laugh at that because I am, and I’m sure you know women who work outside doing “men” like jobs, so used to working hard, both outside of the house and in, but here the women do the cooking and cleaning, some might even have a garden, but you wouldn’t really see the women outside hauling bricks, and helping mix cement and such. Everything is so different. Really it’s hard to explain everything, you would have to come and experience it yourself. Which if you would like to visit, I’m sure I could hook you up. (:



This is not even half of everything going on or what I could go on talking about, but if you want to know more e-mail me. It’s starting to get harder to find time to write blogs and such. But I’ll update as much as possible with pictures at least. Well, that’s all for now. Until next time.

Prayer for Rosa.

A couple of years ago Rosa (the “mom” of Didasko) was diagnosed with a brain tumor that is inoperable here in Honduras. In July of last year several churches in the U.S. pulled together and sent her and Jorge to Miami to have a procedure done called Cyber-knife. Supposedly this procedure should have removed the tumor. This month they had another MRI done to see the status of the tumor and found that it is actually LARGER than it was before the procedure. This news was obviously disheartening for Rosa and the family. They are praying that they can get the funds together to go back to the U.S. to see the doctor that did the procedure to see what more can be done to help her. Please be praying that the Lord provides the finances needed to get back to the States, and for the medical expenses encountered there, and of course for complete healing.


This woman is amazing. Although I cannot communicate with her very well because I don’t speak much Spanish, I see how big her heart is through her actions with others and these kids. She is an amazing woman of God, she doesn’t even let this news from the MRI stop her from loving on these kids and she continues to spend time with them and teach them things. She is a loving mother! I love her. Please keep her and the family in your prayers. Rosa and Jorge need to make the trip back to the U.S to run more tests and talk with the doctors there. We’re praying for the money to come in so that they are able to get everything that they need completed. But most importantly we are praying for a COMPLETE HEALTHING, that this tumor will disappear and be gone and not return again.

Thank you for your prayers.
Blessings. Until next time.
