These past few months have been so full. Full of beach play days with the kids, family visits, tutoring, visiting sponsored kids, preparing to move houses, working with mission teams, and everything else under the sun.
Here's a few pics so you can "see" it all!
In March, HCA dug the bottom half for the bathrooms on the Women and Children Center.
In March, we took a few kids to the Jungle where we were able to spend the day overlooking an amazing mountain side and zip-lining. The above pic is of me jumping from that rock into the river!
Here's all the kids resting on the rock
Some of the kids from our Sunday School class with their mother and I!
For my birthday we celebrated with dinner out on the town and a typical latino photo shoot...no smiles and all.
Haille arrived in June! Haille was a missionary in Nicaragua and will now be working and living with me full time! I am so excited to have her, to see how God will use her and us together to further this ministry!
After long hours, lots of decision making and waiting, Haille and I finally moved into our new house! We believe this is just one step forward into blessing Finding Hope and what is all to come! We have had many visitors come by to see the new remodeled house, bring us housewarming gifts like mangos and pineapples, and tell us they are there if we ever need anything. Having a community who supports and backs you, loves you, and truly is looking out for you, is the biggest blessing of all.
Oh, this hair.
Hand washing clothes at our new house...see our visitor in the background?

In June, Haille and I helped HCA build 4 local bathrooms in town. Here is the grandmother, Dory and little Adolfito who were one of the families who got their first bathroom and shower!

Kids following me all day, everyday
Babysitting!
Monthly visit to see the Escobar kids in Jutiapa...this was Haille's first time meeting them!
I am so overly excited for the future of Finding Hope and this ministry. Having Haille jump on board and give her heart 100% to these kids, families and this town is everything I could have asked for. I believe God has her here to do wonderful things. We are excited to move forward with the construction and are praying for the right people to come along and join us in this beautiful future! After overcoming a few obstacles, learning to let some people out of our lives who dont belong, and believing fully and completely in Him, we believe great things are to come. Please join us in prayer that this ministry is to His glory and that everything we do is to His name.
