The Gringo Boys Go to VBS

All this week the boys, along with the other kids here at SEBCAH, pile into a 16 passenger minibus, I guess there were 19 in it today, but...anyway, they head across town to one of the local churches, Roca de los Siglos for a VBS outreach. Because most of the buildings are made of concrete block, the acoustics are usually terrible. Even so, it was very beautiful to hear the children singing the Honduran National Anthem. They followed that with some very energetic songs with words and actions we didn't really understand. To my VERY great surprise it didn't keep the boys from getting up in front with some of the other kids to help lead the songs. It was so funny watching them, especially as they tower over most of the other kids and are so obviously "gringos". I am thankful that they have so many young people here to spend time with. We didn't get many decent pictures as the lighting inside was not good and Barbe and I have not been back since the first day.
