Mission Team #4 – Apr 2008

April 10 – 20, 2008

Leader – Lisa Walters; Dale & Cheryl Cleveland, Kevin & Laura Cummings, John & Sue Dunlap, Dan Hendrickson, Betty McKamey, Amanda O’Connor, Gayle Oldenbusch, and Suzanne Walker.

Mission – Continue the work on the cafeteria/computer lab building at Escuela de Venezuela in the Rincon District of Tegucigalpa, Honduras.

This team had a very successful time in Teguc. The main floor was mixed and poured. The second floor joists were constructed, their placement was prepared and finally they got placed in position. As this work was being completed, Cheryl led a quilting class and the women produced five quilts while the team was there. The idea behind the class was to give them the beginnings for a micro-business that they could use to help themselves.

The team also found time to do some site seeing in the Valley of the Angels, they went to La Cumbre for dinner one evening as well as visiting the ever wonderful El Patio, with its mariachi bands.

Pastor Giron continues the work now, as there were funds left behind to continue with the project.
