Gardening for Nutrition

Because I am a gardener and know the nutrition needed for the children in Honduras,  the Spirit has given me a burning desire to help families grow gardens.  If the fence posts can grow, and they do, surely they can have gardens to provide year round vegetables for nutrition.  So, seeds were purchased and sent  back with Rodilio and his father and Elmer will do test gardens for us.  This could be an exciting adventure!  Although, with the hard rain and roaming chickens, dogs and pigs, it will be a different way of gardening but I think it can be worked out.  With out vision we will get nowhere, right.  I will keep you posted.

Rodilio from Las Vegas to DC

My dear friend Rodilio, from Las Vegas, Honduras is visiting Washington DC for several days.  He's visiting long time friends who are very interested in his dreams.  Yesterday we met with the program manager for World Vision for Central America.  We learned so much from her as we think about working on new projects.   We also are going to learn more about Micro businesses in Honduras.  Will spend more quality time with Rodilio when Brian gets here tomorrow.
Our Friends of Barnabas team for August is completed and will be there from August 7-15.  We will be spending severall days in communities in La Paz, Honduras  in three new communities.  Six members of our team will be going for the first time and are very excited.
