Hosanna House--Belize

My name is Ruth Smith and my brother Matt and I will be doing the blogs while we are in Belize. We got here on Saturday February 24th at about 4:30 pm, and the climate is nothing like home. When we arrived to Hosanna House all the children were more than happy to see all of us. Yesterday we went to the local Mennonite church, it was a very good service and enjoyed by all. Later in the afternoon we took the children to the river to go swimming, the water was extremly refreshing to all of us because it is very hot and humid. Then after we brought the children back to the house we did some sightseeing. We went and seen the ocean and a local town. But today (Monday) the men are all working on the church roof and the women are going to be with children because they have off school today. But so far everyone is doing well, a couple people have colds and a few of the women have been a buffet line for the bugs. I guess they like our sweet blood, and so far I do not think the bugs have bothered the men to much.
Well look here tomorrow for more on what we are up to... Ruth Smith
