This is my last day in Copan.
Saul and Isly from World Vision just stopped by with a present for me. It touched my heart as it is really me that thanks them for hauling me around all week and putting up with my terrible Spanish. I feel like these gifts are really not for me but for all those people that supported the El Malcote school project. It is all such a combined effort………people that donated money, Robert and Darcy who looked after getting the money down here, World Vision and Ellen who did the REAL work here to get the classroom built, the community people who volunteered their time and muscles to actually build the building. Robert puts up my blog faithfully every day, Barry looks after the homefront, the dog (and now a cat too), Telma my friend and hostess here in Copan. Telma still “knows everything” and is an ongoing supply of accurate information.
And I am grateful to “A Better World” who supplies the organization that I can work through.
I’m just waiting for the lady who is buying the food for the orphanage and then will go with her to deliver it up there. And- that will be my last task for this trip.
Telma - Knows everything
Gracias "A Better World"
