Yonny

On Thursday evening a friend called Karen, the director of Casa de Esperanza asking if she could take a little boy that night, and she agreed. Yonny (Johnny) is six years old. He was living on the streets barefoot and dirty. It seems that he has no parents at all. He is very "chele" which is a slang word for a Honduran who has light colored skin. When he came he had curly hair. He was scared of Karen and would only go to her husband Dorian. He is coming around now and will hug some of the Americans. Pray for Yonny as he adjusts to living with rules and structure. Praise God that Yonny has food today and shelter over his head.

Thank you for keeping a blog of your summer in Honduras. It is encouraging to see God at work through both of you.
