Its new post time. Here´s the low down. I´ve been really busy this trip, but not so much with interesting stories. I have stories from earlier this year that a childrens´ fiction book writer couldn´t make up.... if he was on acid. This year has been equally as exciting for me, but not as many awesome stories for the blog. I´m going to give you what I got though.
So, the plans for the new school are going swell. I made it out to Comayagua last week to check out Enlaces, the school of which we want to be a satellite campus. Honestly, I haven´t seen a school in Honduras yet that I was impressed with. Enlaces really impressed me. It was organized and structured from the big picture situations down to the detailed specifics. They´re program really impressed me with how simple and effective the lessons seemed. I liked it. We´re really looking towards getting legal work and planning together for January. Be in prayer for us. I´d love it if our school gave a better education to our girls and could minister to our community with the love and the message of Christ. I hope thats where we´re headed.
Another cool thing from my trip to Comayagua is that I´m more away of how awesome the English is at the farm. Our girls really speak it well. At the school in Comayagua, I met students who had been studying English for hours and hours every day for years and years, right? They did a great job, but their English wasn´t as good as some of my girls. In fact, some of my girls at PTC speak better English than their teachers. I don´t say this to slam the teachers or students. They did a great job. I´m just excited for my girls that they´re getting such a useful skill at the Farm. I try to explain to them sometimes how much easier getting a job will be if you´re bilingual, but I´m not sure they believe me. I´m right though. I´m always right.
Well, thats about it. I´ve been on the internet sparringly in the last few weeks. I need to spend a little time today looking up biographies on Jose Trinidad Reyes, Cecillia del Valle, and Trinidad Cabanaz. Oh, you don´t know those people? Me neither. But I will before I teach history on Monday. Pray for us, we need it.
