The End or just the Beginning?

`Today was the last day of an awesome week.  We started the day with a Sunrise Communion Service at the Faith Home Chapel.  The sun created an beautiful array of colors through the stained glass, making the portrait spring to life.  It was an awesome reflection / worship time for the team.

Most of the team went up to the Women's Coop, had a pizza party with the Faith Home children and went to the Guamalito (market) shopping.  A few of us went with Saul and Larry Warren to do some follow up visits to some hearing aid patients.  We had the best day going out and visiting with the people while Larry adjusted and replaced hearing aids.  It's amazing to see the look on a person's face when they signal that they can hear.  Their eyes light up before they even say anything or make a motion.  The simple things that we take for granted, are what mean the most to someone who doesn't have it.

We wrapped up our week with a lengthy devotion and worship time and reflected on the week behind us while challenging each other to carry our experience ahead.  This may be the end of our mission week here in Honduras, but it's the beginning of a new mission....as we return with a fresh new focus!
