It's almost here! It almost seems unreal that I will be flying out in 3 days. I keep trying to tell myself that I need to finish everything because I am FINALLY LEAVING, but then my subconscious says, "No, nothing is really going to happen. The whole thing is just a dream." Then I have to tell my subconscious to go back to its corner and sit down because I AM GOING TO HONDURAS IN THREE DAYS! I'm not really nervous (perhaps I should be more than I am), but I just feel an intense anticipation and readiness to get out of waiting mode and into the thick of things. I know once I get there I may be wishing for the slower pace back, but right now I am just SO ready to launch and start walking the path before me.
Prayer request right now is that my heart doesn't get ahead of my head and I can focus these next few days (and continue to focus and not get overwhelmed with all the new responsibilities and experiences when I get down there).
Mas palabras mas tarde, amigos!

After many hours driving to Houston, a three hour flight to San Pedro Sula, and over two hours on a school bus to get to Siguatepeque, I am here! We've had our first three days at the school, and I am very overwhelmed by everything that I don't (and won't) know. I've also realized just how lacking I am in Spanish. 😳
Please pray for grace and wisdom going forward. I should have Internet at the house in the next week or so. Mas palabras mas tarde!
Vaya con Dios, mi hermanos en Cristo!
