Early one morning our neighbor Rigoberto was calling from the gate. I was expecting to be asked for a favor, but was greeted by this "grass is greener on the other side" bovine! I'm sure this is going to make a great sermon illustration one day. (By the way, Oscar and I successfully released the vaca from her bad choice.) PRAY over the safety of our animals - no, this cow does not belong to us! LOL!

| Arcoiris over RO4Y |
 |
| This young man, Cristian, works at the local hardware store. He is deaf and has no language. After working two years with the deaf in Mexico and having a deaf spouse, I often wonder if RO4Y will have more opportunities to work with the deaf of Honduras. Keep it in PRAYER. |
 |
| Leandro with his cousin plowing the field for planting; While a youth pastor in the States I heard many "excuses" for not attending study; however, I never heard "Sorry, Jon. I'm planting corn." PRAY for understanding this very different culture. |
 |
| Mare with Crisna and her younger cousin Mily; One step closer to planting in her raised-bed garden. PRAY for consistency & interest in the garden kids. |

| La vida de los perros: Daisy. |
 |
| Sunday Afternoon Adult Bible Study: Oscar, Karla, Jeny and me. Each of the adults shared what God has been showing them in His word, as well as personal prayer requests. It has been rich to not only minister, but to get to know these brothers and sisters. PRAY for our outreach to the adults in the community and our desire to support the parents of RO4Y kids. |
 |
| Neighbors, Alejandra and her little sister Pamela, try out the tire swing. They live with four other siblings and their mother. Dad abandoned them a little over a year ago. PRAY for their health physically and spiritually. |

"But be very careful to obey all the commands
and the instructions that Moses gave to you.
Love the Lord your God, walk in all his ways, obey his commands,
hold firmly to him, and serve him with all your heart and all your soul.”
hold firmly to him, and serve him with all your heart and all your soul.”
Joshua 22:5
