Old Journal Entry

I found this journal entry today which I had written when I first arrived in Honduras to start working on our house.  Here it is:

1-17-06

Today marked the 4th trip that I’ve been able to make to Honduras.  The first trip was in 2000 to work on the house where the directors of the school at Instituto el Rey live, the 2nd trip I visited while on a trip to survey several countries in Central America and to seek God’s direction for my life, the 3rd trip was this past summer when I visited with Sarah and her family, and now my 4th and longest trip.  I arrived in San Pedro Sula late in the afternoon, and after finding out that the flight was an extra $60, I decided to ride the bus and save Give Hope 2 Kids $50.  It took a little bit longer, but was a great time to get acclimated and ease back into the culture.  This evening I spent with Dr. Black, a really interesting retired doctor from Texas.  He has been very kind to Sarah and me…I really enjoy the talks we have.  He grew up as a pastor’s son as I did, so I feel we have some connection there.  I gave mom and Dad and Sarah a call to let them know that I arrived safely.  -Jason
