Pray for the pastors travelling tonight - the devil is trying to stick his fingers into the conference even before it starts.  We got word tonight that a bus carrying our brothers broke down and will be delayed getting to Puerto Cabezas.  Pray for their safety and that their able to get some rest before our conference.

We had an eye-opening day.  Our team took a trip to a food distribution site for 400 plus children within Puerto Cabezas.  We really enjoyed spending time with there... we were welcomed with open arms by hundreds of children immediately upon our arrival.  It seems that every child had a smile on their face despite their environment.  Chuck, Nathan, Austin, and Christian had a chance to serve meals to the kids - an AMAZIING experience.  Humbled.

Mugged.

Everyone wants a picture!

Nathan and Christian dishing up chow and drinks


Chuck working hard - he told me by the time he was done one of his fingers was numb from the heat of the spoon he used.

Shoes. Wow.

A good buddy of mine - Fernando - I showed him some pictures of Oregon and my family on my camera and we had a GREAT converation in spanish and Miskito.


Once we finished looking at the pictures on my camera - this stud wanted to show us something so we followed him to a pile of sand.  He then climbed a step stool and pulled off a backflip without hesitation.
