The Need For Love.

I want to start out by saying... Wow. Today was one heck of an emotional roller coaster. God was everywhere from hellos at Espiransa to goodbyes at Casitas and also the plans for the ABC center. God was EVERYWHERE.
The first thing on the agenda was to head to Espiransa to put on the same "act" that we had preformed multiple other times at different locations around the city. We divided our team into different groups to manage stations for the same purpose. As we rotated around, members of our team took turns in the nursery, better known as "the baby room". This is where numerous orphaned babies live. There were average of two kids in each crib. You walk into this room where these little babies are just crying out to be loved. They want to be held, loved, and spoken to even though they do not understand it. Every time you pick a babie up, it stops crying and every time you set it down it begins to wail louder than before. Its heart wrenching. These litle babies crying out just to be loved even though they dont understand the concept.
After leaving Espiransa, we headed just down the streetwhere we found the ABC center. This humungas abandoned campus has all the potential the world. Jeremy gaves us a grand tour of the place for us to see the progress and the plans. This place is just breath taking, it really is. Please be keeping the ABC center your prayers! After that, we headed to lunch at an "authentic" Honduran restraunt. Muy delicious. After enjoying lunch, we took every back road possible and went to Casitas for the finalntime of the trip. This is where all the emotion really was stirred. Walking in, everyone was aware of the elephant in the room but tried to ignore the best they could. Hugs, kisses and notes were all being exchanged for half of the afternoon. The other half was spent by sharing testimonies and pouring our hearts out to God during worship. the first one out of the hatch in large group time Shari. This is only the second time she had ever shared with a group of people about her brutal childhood and it moved hearts. Next up, Mr. Bill (Memo) James who spoke also of his loss of love. After their two moving testimonies, w got the opportunity to worship God one last time with the girls. The first two songs where Mighty To Save and From The Inside Out. Two amazing songs that we got to sing along with the girls. This Wes a high light of the day, the final worship. Tears were flowing and hands were raised. It was a very beautiful site to see. Once finished, we ended with the two song of the week. After that, goodbyes. Even though there is a language barrier, we still manage to understand basic concepts, were leaving. God might put us on the path to come back or he might not and we all knew that we had to trust him with that. These girls balled their eyes out. After seeing smile after smile, at the end of the day they are thirsty. Thirsty for love. What an incredible day.
The rest of the night was spent eating and playing spoons. Have a great day. Love, Us.
