Christmas Again

I couldn't believe it when I saw the first Christmas Tree of the season. It never ceases to amaze me how early they put up the Christmas decorations in Honduras. Since they have no Thanksgiving and they don't celebrate Halloween, Christmas decorations start to go up the end of September so they can all be up on the first of October. I am not ready for Christmas yet. I have so much to do before then.

Joey has a sinus infection and has been a lot of fun to deal with. Please pray that no one else gets sick.

Jason is out all day today. He has two Bible Institute classes to teach and in the afternoon he will be meeting with some people about some land we are trying to purchase. The land (almost 18 acres) would be for our house and for building a full time Bible College/Institute. The land would require a lot of work to repair the road before it could be used so we are trying to talk them down as much as possible. They refused our first offer, which was so low it was almost an insult. Jason gave them another offer a little bit higher, but not much. The man in charge of the selling the land then called and asked to meet Jason this afternoon. We will see what happens. We don't have the money to get the land, but we are doing the leg work and if God wants us to have it he will provide. Land in this part of the country is selling for more than two time what the sellers are asking. This is because of the road (it is really bad), but it would be perfect property for us. Please pray with us that God will would be done.
