Some Honduras Pictures

This is the city dump in Tegucigalpa.  Over 300 people live there.  There homes are cardboard boxes or whatever they can find in the trash.  Their entire lives are spent looking through garbage for food, clothing and shelter.  Also, there were many kids who lived in this environment with their families.  When I first saw the dump my question was, "God, why did you make these people so poor?"  Since being back home for a couple of months and hearing the news about our economy and how "bad" things are and looking at my life, the question has changed.  "God, why did you make me so rich?"


These two pictures were taken at schools in the Santa Ana area.  There was no restrictions about praying with children or talking about Jesus.  Oh...by the way, there are no school shootings in Honduras.

The lady in the cap is Christina.  She is a pastor's wife.  We were able to share Christ with this family and all three ladies in the picture asked Christ to save them.  Three generations!

This is a picture of kids at a local church.  The first day we arrived in Honduras, we were teaching at this church within an hour and a half of our plane landing.  I was able to spend the afternoon with these children and teach them from the Word.
