Thursday night

Last night I did not get to go to church. It is getting to be to often that this happens. Anyway, Wednesday evening we went out to make the repairs to the church and try to seal it after the breakin. Jordan was getting over his cold wonderfully, but Thursday morning when he woke up he was a bear and continued to sound very croupy and be weepy all day. Jason decided that he needed to stay home and recover. He must have been feeling bad as it is 10:00 am and he is still asleep. They had a smaller group, but the miracle was that it was all men. Normally, the women far outnumber the men. It is a great encouragement to see men becoming involved in the Lord's work.

Today we discovered that the VCR we use for showing films was stolen. We forgot to take it out of the box with the sound system and it was stolen. It was a cheap model that you can buy at Walmart for around $20. The only problem is that when we bought it here we paid $60 for it. It makes us so sad and frustrated that these things were stolen. We know who did it, but cannot prove it. We even talked to the peole and asked them to keep an eye out for the things. We did this as a way to let them know we know what they did without calling them thieves. They looked very guilty.

This afternoon I am going to go to the fabric store. Last time I was there they had some gorgeous blue jean fabric. I have two jean jumpers that are so old. They don't fit me anymore and have developed holes. I need to replace them. I know a lady here who has made clothes for me before. I am hoping she can make me some new jean jumpers.

In Honduras it is hard to find 100% cotton fabric. When you do find it, it is very expensive. On the other hand upholstery fabric is very cheap. I think that this blue jean is upholsters fabric, but I will have to take a closer look and see if it will work. What I love about upholstery fabric is the width of the fabric. I have used it to make curtains, tablecloths, and lots of litte things as it is so economical and durable.

The picture is of Jordan with Jason at Chiminike. They went with Jason and my Mom when I was still on bedrest from my Hepatitis.
