Long and winding road

We left the house at 4:00 a.m. yesterday and made it to church in less than 15 minutes--amazing how easy it is to drive at that time of the morning.  Actually, I was surprised we weren't the first at the church.  Nevertheless, our departure time of 5:00 a.m. slipped by almost 45 minutes.  This time we were in the van (air-conditioned) with 6 others; there were another 25 on the big yellow bus. 

The trip was long, but uneventful--the El Salvador border and the two Honduran borders were almost empty.  The Nicaragua border, while not at all full, still took about an hour.  We really didn't notice any damage from the recent earthquake/tremors.  We pulled in to the hotel about 8:30 p.m.

The first four of more than 40 people from five different churches arrived last night.  Most of the rest arrive on various flights today, with the last two coming in on Sunday.  Please pray for the second bus full of Salvadorans who are driving over today and that God's spirit will move mightily among the Nicaraguan people during this week of evangelistic outreach.
