It is OCTOBER! Wait that can't be right. Two months ago I started my journey when I got offered a position to come down here to Honduras and teach and I have been blessed with such an amazing experience so far. Between school and the homeless shelter the last few weeks have been super busy which means I have been neglecting the blog so I apologize for that. It is a holiday weekend down here so I don't have to work again til Monday! It will be nice for a few days of sleeping in. This last Friday was definitely one of my favorite days so far at Interamerican. They day was filled with traditional Honduran games and events which meant I got to play with the kids almost all day! The highlight of this was when the school chanting "Mr.Corey" while I was jumping some rope! I was in charge of encostalados. Which is a potato sack race back in the states! The kids from grade pre-K to 6th (and of course the teachers) all had a great time! One of the things I LOVE most about working at Interamerican is the amazing teaching staff here. They are all so helpful to one another, and especially helpful to me! But also they are always ready to have fun with the kids and one another!
We have now begun having movie night every Saturday night at the homeless ministry! This has become the highlight of me week down here. Every week we bring a projector and watch a movie with all the people at Breaking Chains. The residents absolutely LOVE the movies and I have to admit I LOVE being able to share my Saturday evenings with them! The last 3 movie nights Jonatan has managed to fall asleep on me, he is definitely one of my favorite kids ever!
I really LOVE this country. It has welcomed me with open arms and has taught me so much about myself already in such a short amount of time. I am so excited to see what He has in store for me next as every day brings with it another amazing adventure.
