The group will be picked up tomorrow at 1pm and taken to San Pedro Sula, they will be flying out of San Pedro Sula on Sunday around noon, we will post the flight details when we have them. The people that will be traveling with them will be staying with them the entire time and have lined up the hotels, etc....This insurance company has been a true blessing. I'm so thankful this is something we always do for teams when they travel, we've always considered it back up for medical emergencies. But they have been great about everything and very helpful in this situation. I encourage anyone who does overseas missions to be sure to get such insurance! We've done it the past several years for our team and it's never been used....so nice to know it's so easy when it is used!!
So the good news is....the team will get to partake in the party at the school. They are planning (and wanting very badly) to go on to the school and do things as scheduled....their Bible classes, the sponsor project and the 4th of July celebrations!! School gets out at noon here so that works out perfectly!!
So it will be a grand sent off!! We will miss them dearly they have been such a great asset here in Trujillo and are disappointed their trip has been cut short...even if it's just by a few days!!
I'm so thankful for them and their GREAT attitudes!! But reading the comments of their parents and loved ones.....we see where that comes from :-)
THANK YOU!!!

Hey! Thanks for the post! And the plan updates. We are heading out of town in the AM, with no internet access....so, it's nice to know when to expect the group. Tell Jared that I'm heading back to WA on Monday AM. Love you guys and so thankful that you and Thad were there to help Jared with some tough decisions. It's hard to know what the "right" answer is, especially when hindsight is 20/20. Come visit ANYTIME, would love to have GA visitors in WA! Especially when it's sunny and beautiful!
Love you guys!

Raquel,
Thank you so much for keeping us posted. A friend of mine in Texas has posted on Facebook a request for prayers for you all. She already has a number of people from all over that I don't even know, responding that they are all in prayer.
Take care, and enjoy the last bit of time together. You're all loved!

The updates are SO appreciated! All the parents have been contacted and we are all praying for the safe return of the team. They are awesome people for sure!
Love,
Margaret
P.S. Please fill Rod up on the Honduran tacos because that's one thing I've never made (but would be willing to learn!)
I am so glad for the update, reading the blog puts my heart at ease! I am sorry that our group has to leave early, it sounds like they have really enjoyed themselves and have been learning a lot. Please tell Bri that we can't wait to see her, we have missed her sooooooo much. I can't wait to hug and kiss her. I pray for safe travel and that everything will go great with their departure. We will be thinking of all of you!

Do you mind sharing the name of the insurance company and the exact type of coverage you purchase?
Thank you so much!
Cindy I don't mind at all!! We purchased insurance through Good Neighbor Insurance, but they are just a broker. It's so extremely inexpensive, but WOW...it has come in handy! Such a simple thing to do for a group.
Now we are dealing with AIG and they have been fantastic!! https://www.mnui.com/docs/1611151208.pdf is a link to the policy I think if that helps you
Thank you! I appreciate your quick response. I certainly did not expect it so quickly. You are staying on top of everything.
Blessings!
