I'm Here!

Hola!

My dad and I have made it to Honduras! It is beautiful here...and quite muggy, but great none the less. I knew I was in a new and exciting place when I looked out the plane window and saw miles and miles of bananna farms. I've never seen such a thing.

Guy and Angie (the missionary couple who I will be working with) and their two young children picked us up from the airport. They are amazing people. I really like the ministry they have here. (I'll explain more of that in a later blog.)

So I was told today that I would be teaching an English class three times a day one hour each. Ahhh! This class is actually for the staff here on campus who want to learn more English. This is a great thing because hopefully they can, in return, help me with my Spanish. It is of couse a little frustrating right now that I can not communicate very well with the kids on campus. Hablo solo un poco espanol. I know I will get better, but for now there is a lot of sign language involved in my conversations. Ha!

Well that's it for now. Honduras has a big soccer match tonight and they are showing it on the big projector in a tent that also serves as their church. Soccer is so huge here that it should be an interesting night.

Haha! Dad just came back to the room I am writing in because he can't get into his bedroom without his reading glasses. The padlock numbers are a little small. I'm going to have to go help him.

God Bless,
Katelyn

Prayer Requests:

• My Spanish is weak. It's going to be very important that I get better.
• My English class. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed.
• I have a full kitchen in my house and am doing all the cooking for myself. I went and bought groceries in a Honduran supermarket today. I'm a bit nervous about this. It will be the first time I am completely on my own with cooking. It sounds silly, but it is a concern of mine.
• Continued prayer for my parents and their faithfullness in letting their little girl do this.
• Tree of Life Missions (www.tolm.org.)
