While we were in Honduras, we stayed at a complex that housed several different buildings. The missionaries, Keith and Joanna (and their children), live there in a house. There's a big warehouse building for storage that also includes several bedrooms (that's where we stayed). There's a building that has 4 one bedroom apartments. There's also a large multi-purpose building, where they have church on Sundays and are able to house larger groups that come to minister. The complex is also home to 6 orphans. This is part of Keith and Joanna's mission....to provide a safe, loving, Christian home for these children. Right now, there is one home for the 6 children (and a house mother). They are hoping to add more homes for more children to be able to live in the future.
Here's the home where the children live.

Manuel after church - isn't he handsome?
This little inflatable pool sat was out in the yard and they seemed to love dunking their heads in it! It wasn't all that hot most days, but I guess it cooled them down.

(By the way, I have no idea how to spell most of their names!)
The last evening we were there, we gave the kids presents we had brought with us. Many of you reading this blog were instrumental in helping me to be able to buy these presents!
They hung out the car windows waving to us as they drove away! (I cried a little!)
