quick update
This morning we shared God sightings from this past week and it was encouraging to hear from everyone about how they saw God work in different ways. The students are tired but in great spirits and excited about the chance to buy some coke in a bag, talk about the trip and get a little down time.
Thanks for your prayers and my hope is that I can write more updates and read all your comments to the team.
Happy 4th of July

Hey everyone :D
The amount of concern and care that everyone has been showing has helped a ton, and it helps keep me smiling and enjoying the fact that I'm simply alive after an accident such as that. I am eternally grateful to Kike and repelling safety gear (helmet) because without either of them, my condition would be much much worse.
I hope that everything in Honduras is running as smoothly as it was when I was there. I miss you all and everyone is in my thoughts and prayers.
Sending love from Florida,
Hannah Fricke

camp: day three
The group also performed the Lifehouse drama that they had practiced before coming as we talked about the new identity we have in Christ after we place our faith in him. We also played a game where I got pudding all over my head which I am sure relates to Jesus in some way. He knows.
We finished the night with the cabins acting out scenes for Spider Man movies but with each group having its own movie genre.
The group continues to do well and I am thankful for a camp that has run so smoothly so far. It has offered a much needed emotional break for everyone involved. Thank you for your prayers and please keep praying as I know you are.
Good night from Honduras

Camp: day two
Day two of camp was our first full day and I can tell the students still are on an energy high. They started getting up for showers around 5 am which is just plain sick J After breakfast the cabins spent some time in devotionals and then headed off to one of five different camp activities.
When we have any down time the guys find their way to the football (soccer) field and the girls sit in the shade and talk mostly about the boys. There are a couple on our team, whom shall remain unnamed, that have attracted a lot of attention.
Tonight will be our second session and we will be talking about how the world and everyone in it is broken and that we need help. A number of students here are likely not Christ followers to please pray that God would draw them toward Himself and that those who know Him would grow in their knowledge of God’s love for them.
Our students are doing a great job of making new friends and trying new activities. They are not sticking with just each other which can be a challenge. I hear them learning new Spanish phrases and asking lots of questions. I am very proud of them.
The last things we will be doing before we head to bed tonight is a night game of capture the flag. It is a good way to end our day. We are thankful for your prayers and I will try and post up a more pictures when I can get them.
another happy birthday!
Thanks all!
