Arrived safely in Honduras

Our flight today took us from RDU to Atlanta, then we arrived safely in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.  As you may know, there has been some political unrest because of the recent presidential election and inauguration in Honduras.  The team felt confident that we would be safe and we appreciate all of your prayers for our safe journey.  We arrived in Tegucigalpa around 1:00 PM and had no issues going through customs and collecting our luggage.  Although the flight was full, the airport was surprisingly not crowded. We loaded into the van and a new Kia truck and made our way to the Mount Horeb camp near Choluteca.  The transcontinental highway that we travel on has been under construction for the past year, which at times has turned the 2 hour 45 minute trip into an 8 hour trip.  Thankfully, ours today was only 3 hours 20 minutes.  We also had two national police officers ride with us from the airport back to the camp as a precaution.  

After a great meal of rice, beans, plantains, and tortillas we had an orientation session and evening devotion.  Early to bed now for our first work day tomorrow.

Gracias!
