I'm Back in the US of A

Well I am back and recovered. It took a couple of days to recover from the traveling. But it happened. After we drove from Las Esperanzas to Tegucigalpa we stayed in a hotel and then went to the airport to catch our airplane in the morning. After we boarded the aircraft it started to rain softly and the air traffic controllers decided to close the air port. I know REAL funny. SO we sat at the gate for an hour and a half. Most people would not worry about this but our airline flies internationally into Houston, so we had a connecting flight into Phoenix and it was only a hour and 45 minute delay. So once we got up into the air the pilot was only able to shave twenty minutes off of the flight. WE landed at the Houston airport at 5:25 we were suppose to board the Phoenix flight at 5:10, so instead of looking at the negative side we ran through customs only to be told that the flight did not wait for us and that there was one leaving later but only two of our group made it on, the rest of us were on standby. So Dennis with his cell phone to ear started talking with some guy about all the available flights to PHX he told the ticket counter which flight we were going to take because the guy on the cell phone told him. We ended up taking a flight to LA then catching a flight on a different airliner to phoenix getting in around midnight, 6 hours later then expected. I then went to work that morning with a tired smile on my face. I was sad the trip was over. But once we left Las Esperanzas, I was ready to go home.

If you would like to hear more about my trip, I will be showing a slideshow of the pictures on Sunday June 28, 2009 at Trinity Baptist Church in Mesa, AZ. It will be in the Youth room from 2-4. I will also be talking about the work that God is doing in Las Esperanzas.

Thank you all for your support and prayers!
