Vaya Con Dios, El Ayudante! Te Amamos!

It is our last day here at El Ayudante in Honduras! This morning we were able to split into three groups and put the finishing touches on projects we had started during the week. One group finished the concrete floor that was left on the adobe house from yesterday, another group put another two layers on the adobe house that was started Tuesday, and the last group completed the latrine we began Tuesday plus another one. 

This afternoon we were able to take in the sights and do some souvenir shopping in the central park square of Comayagua. We were able to tour (actually we climbed) one of the oldest bell towers in the world at the Catholic church located in the square. Then, we had a fancy dinner at the Lo de Kerpo steakhouse. The food does not disappoint here in Honduras. 

It is very bittersweet to have our mission trip adventure end. We are all ready to go home, but sad to leave all of the amazing people we have met at El Ayudante and the communities we helped in Honduras. So, all that is left to say is vaya con Dios, El Ayudante! Te amamos! (Go with the Lord, El Ayudante! We love you!)
