The Big Day

Honduras VS Spain today at 12:30!!!
We ate on a street corner downtown last night to enjoy some fireworks.  There just isn't anything like a baleada cooked on a grill on a street corner!!  The best!!
The restaurants and stores were hanging blue and white balloons.  Everyone seems to have a TV up.  When eating our lunch yesterday the restaurant where we ate always has a small TV on usually with kids shows on for their children.  But while we were eating he opened a huge case to reveal a GIANT screen TV.  I told Thad "A futboal game must be about to start"  sure enough....

Can't imagine what it will be like downtown today.  Decorated, yet also no one shopping....only watching!

I am about to go help Yefrin, Maybelline and Roxana for the morning.  they have some huge plans this week with the families they minister to here at Little Hands Big Hearts (aka Manos Chicas).  MaryKyle is already with Myra in the kitchen helping and working to prepare lunch for a lot of people.  Roxana just returned from taking one of the children to Tegucigalpa to meet with Operation Smile people about getting his cleft palette repaired.  While there she was also able to learn some helpful physical therapies to use on the children they work with.  So this week one thing will be to teach the parents what she learned so they can be doing it with their children.
Today Pablo is working on the sermon he will be giving soon.
After lunch, we will head to Emilson's house to watch the game!!!
And just after the game.....Pablo has another meeting about the work for the groups!

a busy yet blessed day for all of us.  Even John Mark has a friend over playing futbol and such!!  Yes we are blessed immensely.  thank you for your continued prayers!
