Frogs


Here's our family singing at the Día de la Familia (Day of the Family) holiday at the school.

We had a 7.1 earthquake here in Honduras. By California standards this wasn't a big one, but here in Honduras nothing is built to withstand earthquakes. As you can see the damage was quite extensive. The Ministry of Education cancelled school in Honduras for 2 days.

My brother, Donathan, brought a mission team to Honduras. This team was unique in that it was comprised of parents and children. These kids from Calvary Chapel Vero Beach had a wonderful repore with the Honduran kids.


Here's Daddy Michael hanging out with Jayden during school.

Kids from Lago Yojoa school do their craft at the brother's VBS.

Lago Yojoa kids show off their puppets during the VBS time. They studied Noah's Ark.

Calvary Chapel Vero Beach kids lead the Lago Yoja School children in worship.

Donathan teaches the kids the story of Noah's Ark.

Singing for the older kids at the ophanage.

Here I am hanging out with the toddlers and preschoolers at the orphanage. We sang for them then Donathan told them the story of Noah's Ark and I translated into Spanish.

This little orphan fell in love with my brother. He hung on him for most of the time that we sang.

My brother Donathan and I share some music in the playground of the Pan American Orphanage. How do you like my rythm instrument. It's called the 5 gallon water bottle djembe.

We shared music and helped serve food to a few hundred children at Sister Maria's Soup Kitchen.


We just had our school science fair. My 2nd grade class did such a wonderful job presenting their projects. We made musical instruments made of disposible materials and then we experimented on what affect the sound and pitches of each instrument.


This is the video that was part of my 2nd graders science project. We had a lot of fun working on this.

This blog is titled FROGS so I should tell you why. My brother, PASTOR Donathan, took my kids and and the 6 kids on his mission team to go catch frogs one night. They filled the bucket with frogs. Then Dono and kids took the frogs over to Megan's and Heather's house (2 other teachers from our school), dumped the frogs in their house and then left. He thought they should experience what the Egyptians went through during the Frog Plague. Now how's that for a practical joke.

School is coming to an end. Next week we will be doing final exams.

May God richly bless you,
Michael, Golden, Avalon, Micah, Zachary and Jayden
