Mother's Day




May 11th is the biggest holiday of the year in Honduras. Hondurans take appreciating Mother's seriously on Mother's Day. Church was very special today. The Bible school students put on a beautiful skit about Solomon deciding who was the "real" mother of the baby. The Bible School girls did a great job playing their part, it almost felt real. Rigoberto did a great job being King Solomon. Anna was asked to be in the acronym Moms (Mamas). She memorized the "M". She does such a wonderful job with her Spanish and makes us so proud. Each year the school purchases a special gift for the boys to give to their mother's. This year Lori, with the help of her friend Lixa, chose to have tortilla basket linens made. They lined the alter for the boys to come and get for their moms. Needless to say, Lori ended up with quite a few as she is Mom to many boys on campus. The boys cards and special gifts mean the world. Mother's Day is always a special one with so many precious sons.
