Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: “People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious. For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. – Acts 17:22-23 NIV
Today we become tourists. After a hard week of work, we have the opportunity to relax and enjoy some downtime. And while this break is much needed, I hope to have the chance to, as Paul did in Athens, walk around and observe the culture of the La Ceiba area. Pray: After a physically and emotionally difficult week in the community, it is my prayer that I do not walk away the same person as I entered. Please pray that God will continue to give me eyes to see as He sees. That His love, compassion, and pain will flow through my heart for the people I have opportunity to interact with, in Honduras and beyond. Abre nuestros ojos, Señor!

We are so thankful that you were able to have this experience, and that you were physically able to get through the week. I know that God will use you as you come back to this side of the world where we have everything matererially, but God is often crowded out of our lives. Everyone should go to a third world country as you did, and experience the joy people have over getting something we take for granted- clean water! Thank you for your dedication and humble service for God!
