I'm having such a hard time figuring out what to write; not for lack of material, but the exact opposite. So much has happened in the month and a half since my return and so much more is to come that i can hardly contain my excitement. My love for the ministry, people and life …
Its nearly been two weeks since I arrived home, and by this point, I have had time to think and gather my thoughts about my situation. I have had the opportunity to thoroughly talk with several people concerning it, and I just feel an urge to put it into writing. The first night was spent …
It is nearing the four month mark on my nine month journey. Everything is familiar to me now. The culture, my village, the city...it's my second home. My love for the children and families in my village is growing more and more every day and I already am imagining how hard it will be to …
It started about a month ago when we had so much rain we had to close school. As a result of this, we ended up having a 4 day weekend. Tanya said, "This weekend might be my one chance to visit El Salvador." and from there, we formulated a plan to take a bus to …
Hi. So...it's been awhile huh? I can explain. Our schedules have gotten two times busier than ever before, but, at the same time, I am enjoying my time here more than ever before.

Highpoints of the last 2 weeks: Mary Hudson, Ethan and I took a nice, long walk one day and I saw a part of the village I hadn't seen before. The road took us to a high place and we saw an aerial view of the land. Sugar cane fields swallow our valley in between …
This week has flown by; although its been a week, it really seems like 2 days ago I was writing about how awesome Dia del Niño was. If time keeps going like this for the rest of the 8 months (that's right, one month has passed) then I'll be home in what will feel like …
First grade began this week and I've never been more excited, joyful or frustrated in my life. Obviously I'm excited to teach my children and love on them and be able to spend so much time with them. I'm excited to teach them English and math and science and work with them until they understand. …
I've been in Honduras for an entire week! And what a week it has been. The Sunday after we arrived we went to the international, English speaking church in San Pedro Sula.
