Jamie and I (Josh)  are returning to La Ceiba this May to help The Pettengills and the The McCanns with their summer teams!  We will be arriving late May, and will be staying for the majority of the summer. I am currently studying at Elon University, and Jamie is studying at Boston University.

The third part of the intern, Stunner, will not be joining us this summer, and his juggling skills, balloon hats, and ridiculously good spanish will be missed dearly.

Some photos of what we miss in La Ceiba:

It’s gonna be hard focusing on school with all this excitement to look forward to!

Please pray that we will be able to finish our spring semesters strong, and that God will prepare us to be used for His glory this summer in Honduras.

While things continue to settle down in Ceiba after the removal of president Zelaya, efforts remain to convince the world about the truth in Honduras.  Yesterday I walked alongside appx 3000 other Ceibenos in favor of the Government action to remove Zelaya from office.  Chants of “FUERA MEL” (OUT WITH MEL), y “SOLO PAZ” (ONLY PEACE) filled the air as we walked 10 blocks from the main road all the way to the beach.

It is still discouraging that many uninformed countries are taking the side of Zelaya, claiming he stands fro democracy.  We should be applauding Honduras for being one of a handful of nations to CHOOSE democracy over dictatorship, and stand up against Zelaya.
