Its the Small Things...

Got to work one day this week in time to see 6ft. plus Donald with a hummingbird in his large hand. It had crashed against the shop and he was protecting it til it recovered enough to take flight again. Precious start to the day.


Cinthia Tumlinson is a fellow missionary here, a Honduran married to Joel, one of our doctors who hales from the In His Image Residency program in our home of Tulsa.  She has become very involved in Honduras Mundial, a missionary sending organization dedicated to seeing a change  in the North Coast from a mission field to a missions force. She hosted a large fundraiser porch sale 2 weekends ago to raise money to send Hondurans to some currently open sites in the Muslim world. It was a big success- netting over $400. This is a local Christian family enjoying some of the products, then loading up on their moto to go home.

Today began the last of the Community Health Promoters classes that John spearheaded some years ago. World MAP was providing the funding and the teachers to come to us at Loma de Luz to teach about 25 local young people concepts of community health. They have lost their funding, so this 3 days will be the last. Today, we had more than the normal number of babies accompanying their moms, so added to the challenge. This 9 month old was helping me teach CPR!
