Why light bulbs? With the
funky state of electricity in our house, the new curly q bulbs do not last long
at all, less than the old style bulbs in fact, and then there is of course the
color and brightness the old styles give you. However, the old style are no
longer available here in Honduras...so I found some in the US and bought a few
for a test run in my carry on...I'll be bringing a bunch more in November now
that I know it is allowed. They are quite a bit cheaper as well.
Anyway...we immediately
moved back into work upon getting back, that afternoon in fact, getting to talk
to Oscar and Jana and try to get the desktop computer fired up again...no luck,
I am desperately looking for a piece not available here to get that up and
going. Ugh. I'll post pictures later this week of the progress on the Church
building...mostly in the last few weeks are smaller visible changes but big in
the progress and work required...water downspouts, finishing the corners,
working on windows, etc. but there are other things on the inside as
well.
I was struck again thinking
about the new building today at Church as we, along with another 15-20 people
waited for a seat until the kids went to the overcrowded Sunday School.
And then again when the
woman behind me fainted because of the heat. It was not as hot as it can be in
the building, but it was warm. Turning around to see someone's eyes open but
clearly they have checked out temporarily is not fun.
A building that is
insulated, with a high ceiling, plenty of windows, more space, and fans...maybe
people won't have to faint on a regular basis when coming to Church. That would
be a nice thing, a thought I had not contemplated much lately. As we get closer
and closer to completing this huge task while trying to balance the other balls
in the air of ministry, your help in finishing this is also huge. Thanks to
those of you that pray, give and help out in so many other ways!

My group and my nephew enjoyed working with the church project. So many were good workers, and they want to come back.
Great, very encouraging!
