On Tuesday December 13, we flew from Costa Rica to San Pedro Sula, Honduras then took a two and a half hour drive to our new home city of La Ceiba, Honduras. Our flights and bus ride were easy, no problems with luggage or anything else. Our teammates helped us move into our temporary house and we got to spend some time with Shannon and Kate (teammates) for dinner.
Since getting here about three days ago a lot has happened! We found a house! This is something that just doesn't really happen here in Honduras. On Wednesday morning, we looked at an apartment and two houses with a realtor and the second house we looked at was perfect! It is bigger than we need, but is under budget and is close to a lot of things in this little city. Yesterday we signed an agreement saying that we will be renting the house and we are hoping to sign a contract and begin moving in on Monday! (We know that there are many things that could come up between now and then that could change that, but we are praying that we will be able to be into our new house before Christmas and will be able to use these last two weeks of the year to start making the house into our home.)
We also got to go to the Christmas show for the school that all of the kids on our team attend last night. It was quite a cultural experience. It was about 2.5 hours long and the lights went out about halfway through. The kids of our team did great and we got to cheer them on as they performed.
We are so thankful to be in the place where God has called us and to have such great teammates to serve alongside!
