A Night at the Homeless Ministry
After a long day of travel I got to relax in a pool for a little bit but then it was off to the city. David, Hines, and I went to the homeless ministry which is run by an amazing woman named Amber. A large group from North Carolina was there and they were quite energetic! Running around, playing soccer, and even doing a little dancing with the people of the homeless shelter. I was pretty tired from my long day of travel so I sat back and watched the going-ons of the place. I hadn't really gotten a chance to do much watching and learning when I was down here earlier in the summer because I was constantly doing something. Watching the people there was pretty awesome! I was also lucky enough to talk to one of the guys there who spoke english (even though at first I couldn't tell hehehe) He was carrying around his birth certificate which David could tell confused me. He explained that in Honduras anyone under the age of 18 must carry around their birth certificate or they will be put in jail for the night by the police. Once you turn 18 you get your ID and then you must have that on your person or you spend a night in jail.
