New Chaos

Things here in Honduras at least in La Union have gone back to pretty much normal everyday life. You wouldn't even know that anything is going on here in Honduras here but on the news it is still all over. Currently but the president has just taken away some free speech rights so he has been getting a lot of flack for that. He has shut down a television station or two and a radio station. I think however, that due to the pressure from the international community and even his own people he is going to take back this decree. So currently we are in this time of "tranquility" where the president is still locked in the Brazilian Embassy and there are protests happening everyday but somehow life just goes on as usual.

Now the new chaos is seeming to take place at school. We have one teacher who just had surgery, another who is in Tegucigalpa for another sickness and another teacher is leaving for personal reasons. By next week we could be down 3 teachers. In a school of our size that is a lot of teachers. Plus we are working on this big festival and I have to help plan with parents all in spanish plus today I had to present in front of like 60 parents all in spanish. It isn't exactly my favorite thing in the world to do. However, God is good we have what we need to continue and life will go on. Keep Honduras in your prayers. God Bless
