the journey begins

dearest friends,

a quick update from xela - our time in language school is drawing to a close and I've managed to post some pictures of my time here on my picasa page - http://picasaweb.google.com/erin.ramsey.1. feel free to browse at your leisure!

also, as you might have heard, ex-president Zelaya has made a return to Honduras and has been hiding out in the Brazilian embassy for the past few days. needless to say, the timing is less than ideal for us, as we should have actually begun our journey to the Farm today to arrive on October 1st. we're holding tight and waiting for the final go-ahead... praying for an end to any political violence and for a real peaceful and just solution to the current issues in the country. please keep me and my fellow volunteers in your prayers these days as we make the long journey to the farm, and pray for the people of Honduras, especially the poor who are often so deeply affected and unable to be heard during these difficult times.

much peace to you!
Erin
