A couple of years ago I was incredibly blessed to be able to sponsor a child who lived on the outskirts of Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Her name is Josselin. We prayed together through letters back and forth and we sent pictures to each other. It was so breath-taking to see how just a couple of dollars could feed, clothe and provide medical attention and an education for this little girl. When I was at Faith Home, our General Baptist care
center for children, I met this little girl, her name was Emerita. She was one of the cutest little girls (of course at Faith Home, they are all so adorable, you just want to take them all home with you, if you could). She was attached to me that week when we were around the kids. I just wanted to stay longer just to keep being there for her. It was fun just to be able to hang out with the children and play with them. 
Going on the medical teams were so amazing to be apart of I’m so glad I was able to experience that. Being able to see how these people live, but yet how grateful that they are when they are provided medical treatment for, maybe even, the first time in their lives. Even to be able to provide a church service for them and to be able to share with them the gospel for possible the first time in their lives.
Then, going on a Vacation Bible School/Construction team we got to teach the kids and play with them during VBS time and then help with much needed repairs, maintenance and chores around Faith Home. It was so awesome just to be able to be helpful and to be able to accomplish “much needed tasks and repairs” around the property. Being able to share the Love of Christ with children in the schools off-campus in the smaller towns was great, just to see their smiling faces when we walked in to teach and play with them.
I loved being able to travel to Honduras and I hope to be able to return and be able help out again. It was such an amazing experience!!!
