Our ten kids represent seven schools in the city and we are doing good to keep up with their schedules and ours together. Home-schooling, science fairs, midterm exams, research papers, soccer games, new school enrollment, orientation meetings, Senior work projects, church elder meetings and choir practice, just to mention a few activities going on.

(before Wilmer arrived)
Franklin Hernandez has chosen to finish high school with a bang. He will combine his junior and senior year together in one to graduate early. His school meets every weekend for a solid year, come rain or shine. That schedule allows him to work full-time for WGO as a translator for medical teams and to do construction both with teams and at the Mission House.
Victor and Cintia are doing well in their second semester of college. Victor is enjoying studying International Business and Marketing and is doing exceptionally well. Cintia is in Tourism and is having fun dreaming of a future of travel and learning about other places.
Maryury and Patty are busy with senior class work projects. Both ladies just got back from working with medical and construction teams during Spring Break. Maryury took care of a couple of children for the week so a construction team could work undistracted during their week in Honduras. Patty helped translate for native Indians during a medical brigade for the week.
Miriam and Isabel moved to the Bridge House at the beginning of January and have both done really well. Both ladies worked for WGO just after arriving and enjoyed their time serving the medical brigades that came to work with our ministry. Miriam has just enrolled at a highly reputed Honduran high school and is preparing to work really hard there. Isabel is now going to the same school Franklin went to last year and is excited about new friendships this year.
Jessica is doing awesome at school, as always. She is top in her school and consistently works hard to do her best. Jessica also translated during her Spring Break to native Indians. She spent a lot of time with the Indian children and loved the chance to serve others in her own country. She has been a blessing to watch grow and mature and sincerely wants to please God in her life.
Rodolfo is being home-schooled with the A Beka curriculum and is doing really well. His grades are good and he is learning to work more independently. He has been living with us for 6 months now and has adjusted well. Praise God! He is still involved in soccer classes two to three times a week.
Remember that the faces of our house are always changing. We now have 3 new members of the Bridge House. Let us introduce them to you.
Miriam moved to our house in January and is starting 10th grade at a school she previously attended. She has made many new friends while translating with WGO medical teams. She is excited to be living with her sister, Patty, again while at the Bridge House.
Isabel moved to our house in January. She is in 9th grade and just started at a new school in the city. She worked a little bit at the WGO Mission House during her winter vacation. Her bright smile and eagerness to serve has been a blessing to us all.
Wilmer moved to our house at the end of February. He plans to study at a local trade school for the next two years in order to learn more about carpentry. He is extremely artistic and creative and we look forward to him working to strengthen his talents.
