Still here...

By Katie

Surprise! We're not leaving for Honduras Tuesday. The airport in Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras, is closed for an idefinite period. That means we're staying here in Leota, MN with Matt's family for an indefinite period. We'll keep reading the news reports, emails from Hondurans and North Americans living in Honduras, and US travel warnings and prayerfully make the decision to go when we feel that the airport and roads are secure.

Meanwhile, prayer is appreciated, specifically for the process of moving forward with diplomatic talks toward a resolution, for the people of Honduras, and for our safe travel when that time comes. Many times over the past year we have seen how when we ask you to pray for something, God answers those prayers and we trust that He will hear all of us praying for this situation as well. Thank you for praying with us.

Thanks for the update - been wondering how this might all affect you guys. And to be honest, I don't really understand what's happening in Honduras. Writing assignment: Katie & Matt's spin on the situation.
Totally optional, of course :)

We're praying that your travel plans will come together in God's perfect timing. It was great hearing about your work when you spoke at Calvary!
