Sending the Kids off to Honduras!

In March, Mitch and I had the pleasure of being a part of the crew that went to Tierra Santa. We are unable to go this time, but thanks to Chris and Tricia Kreie we are sending our daughter and her friend (and the son of our very best friends) in our place. Although I am a bit envious, I am still very excited for them as I know what lies ahead. They are going to hate the hours and hours of waiting and the long drives from here to there, but they are going to love spending time with those kids of the Hogar....and I think the kids are going to love spending time with them as well. How cool to have visitors from the U.S.A. that are your same age!

Looking forward to seeing and hearing about how lives have been changed as a result of this trip. Heaven knows Mitch and I have never been the same since the moment the gates opened and we were greeted by little hands, dirty noses and small voices saying "hola"!

Peace and safe travels!

Lois and Mitch Hegland
