Day 1 - 2018

As you've probably heard, our group landed safely in Tegucigalpa around 11:15 local time. It's amazing how the emotions com flooding back when you first glimpse the city.  This place, this experience, these people become a part of you in a way that's hard to describe to those who've never been. 

 By the time we landed, most of the group had been up for around 30 hours straight (or maybe with just a short nap in there somewhere) so needless to say we were a tired bunch. Regardless, everyone was excited to be here and eager to get to work. It is especially fun to watch the reaction of those who are here for the first time. I think Culture Shock is the best way to put it. 

As is tradition, we made a quick stop by the hotel, followed by a quick lunch, and then got right to work. We've got a great group and everyone worked well together. Today's task was assembling 300 food bags that will be distributed to the poor throughout the week. 

Isaiah 58:10 If you give some of your own food to those who are hungry and to satisfy the needs of those who are humble , then your light will rise in the dark , and your darkness will become as bright as the noonday sun.
