Coming Home



Some beautiful scenery on the way to Las Marias. And Meidy, 2 years old, a child in Nuevo Jerusalem.
Last night in Honduras. We're in San Pedro Sula, just 15 minutes from the airport in a hotel locked behind an iron gate with a guy with a machine gun guarding it.......The hotel caters to business travelers so there are hot showers, continental breakfast, WiFi, all a bit disconcerting. Re-entry sometimes is hard. But here are the promised pictures. We hope they begin to convey the beauty of this country and its people.

A little cutie - Maribel.

Two of the Red Cross workers who spent the week with us, in the back of the pick up riding to one of the villages.


Joel in Nuevo Jerusalem



A child at MAMA's nutrition center -- he's 3 and a half years old, and was brought to the center with almost 400 parasites in his stomach. After several rounds of medicine, he's down to about 85 parasites.

An older couple- he's 91 and she is 82- in El Cedral. She went around the room, hugging and kissing all of us. When she was done -- her husband asked one of us where his kiss was, a request she was not happy about!
