We have arrived In Honduras,greeted at the airport by a contingent
of The Rotary Club of Tegucigalpa and their wives. The media is there to
greet us as well, interviewing us for the evening news. Perhaps we were
not the most elegant or articulate, somewhat tired from the long trip
and very early morning start, but we were enthusiastic, spreading the
word about the upcoming SCAW project, delivering bedkits to over 5000
children.
Our reception was highlighted by a tasty, traditional Honduran
lunch at the home of Ramon and Conchita, also attended by many of the
Rotarians who have worked diligently to make this distribution a
reality. It was an opportunity to renew friendships for those members
who have worked In Honduras before and a wonderful insight for new team
members of the warm and generous hospitality that the SCAW teams are
always given.
It was a great start to what will be a most
rewarding time as we continue the SCAW dream, bringing smiles and
comfort to the children of Honduras. We look forward to our first
distribution.
