Valerie and Cheryl went to the village of El Zapote this morning for a food distribution and I worked in the warehouse with two men from North Carolina, John and Farrell. They were still talking about how hard the youth from Seminole worked last week!
After lunch we all went to the village of Nueva San Isidro. The view driving up the mountain was incredible! We could see Copan Ruinas and the mountains of Guatamala. The Chorti were so gracious and thankful. It sure makes the trip worthwhile! It started to rain while we were there, so we had to leave quicker than we wanted to. John told me he was with a group one time that was there when it started raining and he didn't think they were going to make it out. They got stuck three times and had to winch out. They broke a tree and a pole.
The whole process of the food distribution is a major undertaking. Several people have been involved in the organization of the project. It will take several weeks to get to all the villages.
We will deliver to two more villages tomorrow. Thanks for all your prayers! We will keep you posted.
Cary,
