Honduras Mission -- Thank You For The Gifts










20 Desks and Benches Completed!


When the trip was canceled, there was great concern about the desk/bench project since the wood had already been cut and the rainy season was in full swing. Yovany, the local man who cut the wood, offered to assemble the desks and benches for a nominal cost. He assembled one, took a photo, the desk designer (Bruce Eberhard) gave a thumbs up and 19 more were completed. The next hurdle was how to transport them to the little mountain village of Teoxintales , a treacherous two hour drive from Quimistan. Yovany took it in stride, loaded them on his pick up truck and now they are stacked in the school's classroom ready to be painted. Story to be continued...
