We are in the process of putting a new roof on the Beltrand's current house because we had a thunderstorm last weekend which flooded their home. The clay tiles did not hold up which I expected anyway. We are putting tin down first and then putting the tiles over that. It will be much better. The men should finish today.
We have a heat wave today and tomorrow in Honduras. Businesses and schools will be shut down tomorrow because of the Spring Equinox. I never cared much about it before but in Honduras, the sun's rays are extremely close to the earth and it causes an extreme heat wave and is dangerous to be in the sunlight too long. They are to cut the electricity for 2 days here starting today sometime. The temperature is to get up to 115 degrees. It is HOT! It has been raining a few days this week which means the rainy season is very close. The rain helps out everything so I am excited about seeing it more often.
We had yet another birthday party last night for Doris, our Honduran director, and Danilo, our bus driver for the kids. I forgot my camera so I do not have photos. We had two cakes so that each could have one. Shelly made them. The kids loved them. They were chocolate and strawberry. We all had a great time.
Keep up your prayers. Thank you for keeping up with us. Send some cool weather our way!
