Day 2

Edna,
Wow, what an amazing day in Honduras! Our Saturday was spent seeing what God is already doing in Honduras. Leslie and I took the girls to Janet Hines’ house so they could see the Casa de Esperanza girls in their sewing class.  We discussed and vowed to take action to support this program. A sewing machine costs $150, which is about the cost of a month of junk food for us. We also saw the jewelry making school headed up by Julie. What gorgeous pieces. Their need is for tools for each girl to have when they graduate ($65). Janet, Julie, Leslie and I spent the rest of the morning brainstorming how we could partner up with each other to strengthen the women in Santa Ana. We thought about doing a women’s retreat and letting the women know that we are hear to listen to them and that we intend to grow by sharing and not dictating.
I look forward to worshiping together today. Please pray for our three days of ladies day ministry that will begin on Monday. Hello to my children and grandchildren.
