Day 4 Honduras Summer 2010

Sorry I didn’t get to report last night. We got back late, and I didn’t have the time or energy to get it done. Yesterday was different, since it was Sunday. We took the day to rest.

It was a very active rest, however. Due to a wedding schedule here at the mission house we were unable to find worship space for morning worship, so we had a relaxed and leisurely breakfast. Then we left for a soccer match between some of our Torch guys and the elite national police force of Honduras, the Cobras. They are sort of like a national SWAT team. Torch and Cobra have a traditional of doing this. I’m not much of a soccer guy, but it was interesting. One of the more interesting moments happened after the match. A cow came running across the field. I don’t know.

After the match the Cobras gave an interesting demonstration of some of their fire power. These guys were incredibly active a year ago when the Honduran government was in a major state of unrest.

Following the soccer match we made our way to eat at various restaurants. Then we went to the Valley of Angels. It’s kinda like Nashville, IN and Gatlinburg; lots of little shops. While there we saw some interesting things. Lou Ann had a guy not hit her up; he simply hit her. The guy wasn’t “quite right” and didn’t hit her hard, so it mostly funny.

After eating again we ended the day at the Jesus statue. There we had a great time of worship. We didn’t get back to the mission house until after 10 p.m.
