Rain and More Rain!

We all need to be in prayer for the rain to stop in Tegucigalpa. The villages surrounding Tegucigalpa are experiencing major flooding due to rain and many of the homes are collapsing with the mud slides. Part of the team today spent their time up at the church at San Miguel where the church is being used as a shelter for about 25 families. The city officials were there with a backhoe digging out mud where the river has collasped. The people here have no clean water. It feels like a small "Mitch" the paper said today. Some of the girls played games with the little kids in the church while many others were shoveling mud and digging trenches for water to drain. There is a good possibility that the back wall of the mountain behind the church is going to completely fall in and cause major damage to the back wall of the church. Hopefully tomorrow, we will have sunshine and we will be able to go back and help more. We also built 3 homes today in the village, Nuevo Oriental. The rain was there too but no major problems with flooding in this community.

Please be in prayer especially for the people in San Miguel that are homeless tonight.
