Tonight I am having a last supper so to speak with my family.
Yo tengo emocionales encontradas...It's the spanish way of saying this is bittersweet.
I have never had my heart divided between two worlds before so this is new territory and I haven't even left the States yet. But even though my feelings are divided they are united too...by the cause of Christ.
These past few days have just been so wonderful. God has shown up all over the place to comfort me and encourage me and love me...through His people, through HPC and through His word.
So tomorrow morning I will board a plane in New Orleans at 6:30am and touchdown in San Pedro Sula around noon. Then we will hop on a mini plane and fly to La Ceiba, where we will meet Martin and Wendy and make the treck up the mountain.
Please pray for safe travels...easy going though customs and security and of course...that all 6 pieces of luggage (3 for me and 3 for Allison) make it to La Ceiba when we do. I can feel the prayer in the atmosphere. I know you guys are pulling for us. I can feel the protection of the Lord.
Well I guess I better go join the festivities and spend my last hours loving on my family.
I love you guys too! Thank you for your overwhelming support and your obedience to God. You are so special to me!

The 3 Day Push
There are only 3 days now, between me and Honduran soil!
Sunday night I had the pleasure of seeing some of the greatest people in the world...all at one time...under one roof in Baton Rouge! WOW
It was so special to me to see everyone making connections with eachother. I am all about relationships and that just warmed my heart! It was like 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon except I was the common denomanator...weird!
I was like a little kid right before her birthday party going..."what if no one comes" and boy was I wrong! People came from all over the place...baton rouge, walker, livingston, st. francisville. It was so special!
Tonight I am cooking dinner for my family. My special salmon. I haven't made it in over a year...say a prayer that I remember how! I will have to clear the cobwebs from that part of my brain.
Well I better go put on my chef's hat...hungry people will be arriving soon!
Bug hugs to everyone!!
This has been one of the best days of my life! Wow, to think that there are better days ahead...well that just makes me cry.
