Another afternoon in Balibrea

by Nicole and Gloria

Today we went to continue the painting in the central part of Balibrea, where the church, the health clinic, and the Pastor's house is located.  The teams this week have been doing it little by little and tomorrow the last team will be finishing it up. 

After we finished painting, we visited 4 families.  We gave some care packages to the families and shared and visited with the families.  We were thankful that these families opened their homes to us, and allowed us to visit with them.  We told them about our church family back home and about how the kids have raised the funds to come to Honduras.  We prayed for them and they expressed that they were thankful for our visit, our gifts and our prayers.

One of the families we saw is a young single mother with 5 children, one of which has special needs and had broken her leg.  The pastor knew of the family but didn't know of the special needs child because of the stigma attached to these children in Honduras.  Her 13 year old son is the main breadwinner for the family.  We prayed for them and we will continue to keep them in our prayers for complete healing and that the Lord will provide for the family.
