The other day while I was making dinner, I had my computer next to me as I made sure to not burn my chicken on the stove. I had a Friends episode playing. It was the one where Rachel is feeling pressure at her job to pick up the nasty habit of smoking to…
Hope for Honduras.
Over Spring Break, I had the amazing privilege of serving alongside Jacob as we took his youth group to El Doradito “the little city of gold”, Honduras (it is a small village not even on the map).
