More Pictures of El Hogar

We know that you would like to see more pictures of the week and of the faces of El Hogar which we will post now.


The final picture of the "Cistern Chapel", now demolished by the hard workers - all done by hand tools over three days.

Our van rides - always eventful!

Snacks all ready and just waiting for the kids.  Tonight it's S'mores!

 Life inside the volunteer house with Melissa and Louise.

 Packing the van with supplies that we were taking to the farm.  No room except on top as we filled the van with the team!

 OK, so we have more people working on that lock to get us out of the volunteer house. 

 Rick in the bodega (Supply room) where we are about to sort shoes to send out to the farm. 

 There is always painting to do! Today it is Cathy and Ray and Michael painting the gate into the campus of the El Hogar grounds.  

Sometimes living in close quarters - in the kitchen/lounge area and in the porch where we had our meals and our devotions and sharing in the evenings.  Note Canadian flag in the back ground.

 

Sunday we worshiped at St. Mary's Episcopal Cathedral.

The joy of seeing all the children at Sunday worship. The music is lively and the Sunday School is quite large. Louise, our own Sunday School superintendent, went off to visit the children in their classes.

The setting of Tegucigalpa is beautiful.  

The Children

 

 

 
  We always looked forward to the play time and class room time with the children.

 Doctora Susan had clinic hours in the afternoons and saw many of the children with health issues.

 What a week!

In one of our devotionals, we pondered this thought:

A Meaningful Experience

When we allow God the privilege of shaping our lives, we discover new depths of purpose and meaning.  What a joyful thought to realize you are a chosen vessel for God - perfectly suited for His use.
