What a day! Our team started as usual with breakfast & morning devotional and we were out the gate by 8:40. We made it all of 1/4 mile before one of our buses broke down and we had to have the other bus return to help out. Al ended well and we repaired the bus and travelled on out to Santa Ana where our teams worked throughout the community. The dental clinic went as smoothly as any clinic as I've ever seen. We had new people - that had never gone into a community to tell people about Jesus - doing just that. There were over 50 at the 2:00 PM bible study and there were 2 new Christians at the end of the day.
The two houses were beautiful works and two new families are now dry and warm - all because God provided the resources for his work to be done. There were teams that worked with the childrens home - some people painted and others were just being Jesus to the children in Santa Ana. You had to be there to see just how awesome it really was. You can be proud of the work that the people that you have sent to work - this is a wonderful group of people!
Last night we tried to get in to "El Picacho" the statue of Jesus that looks out over Tegucigalpa. Normally, our teams are able to easily get in at night but - "welcome to Honduras" the gates were locked so we ended up having our evening devotional behind the statue- nevertheless - it was a great close to the first day that the whole team was able to work together.
Saturday was a "Great Day in Honduras".

Hi Starkville group,
We're so proud of all of you! Continue to share the good news of Jesus boldly and let your lights shine to all of the people that you come in contact with. We're praying for you daily and you've been in all prayers in bible classes and worship services since you left. I know that you're feeling blessed as much as you are blessing others. Love you all, Valerie Phillips
HELLO STARKVILLE TORCHERS,
I have a special hello to Miss Katie Sneed!! Oh, how thankful we are to God that you have such an opportunity to share the wonderful gift of Jesus! Take lots of pictures and write your thoughts down and when you come home you can remember. God is good all the time! I love you all! Katie's Mom

Dear Brigitte, I'm thinking of you constantly, knowing that God is doing an amazing work there in your midst. Fun stuff here: I hugged Kimberley Ragsdale yesterday in the MSU cafeteria! Today I talked to Martha about Mary Katherine moving into Rice Hall on 8/12. Your dad called today and told me he sent us pictures of the house. Brandon wanted me to make a smart comment to you from him, but I dare not! I'll let him embarrass you himself! Seriously, I know how hard all of you are working, and I pray that you will see much fruit for the Lord. Love you -- Mom
