Grow

As you can see below (hopefully...depends on your device) mangos are growing in Las Botijas.  It is always nice to see pictures like this, of trees that a group planted last year already bearing fruit.  They are small trees still, and not a lot of fruit...but it is a healthy start.  

I don't have to reach very hard here to see a metaphor brewing, do you?

The clinic container unloaded from FAME, distributing some of the items has begun in earnest...Jose Luis in his job as spiritual development director of the clinic is doing more home visits one day a week, and taking some supplies to those that need them. 

He has a lot of people asking him where "our" church is in Tegucigalpa since he is doing the work of a pastor.  So far, we just point them to different churches in their area, but we are praying if God is taking us down a road of starting something in Tegucigalpa, we shall see.  With something like that, we want to pray, take our time, and see how God leads for sure...rather than running into something that seems so exciting.   

The office building is getting the pieces coming together...it feels so slow, but there are so many hands helping...a lot of group hands over the past seven weeks, and a lot of local hands as well.  A group this week started the painting process on the exterior, and several helpers we hired are pushing through this week to finish it all up.  Still lots to do...but so close now, you can almost see it all coming together.  The garage below also has a lot left to do, but also...a lot less than just a couple months ago!
