Honduras-Boys Working Part 8

Mark Patterson, the missionary dad we are friends with, is in charge of maintenance, and the upkeep of all of MEDA...the seminary in Siguatepeque that we stayed at. He did a great job of keeping our boys and his busy the whole week. (The neighbor boys who are also missionaries and have 7 children worked often too) Many days they worked from breakfast to dinner with a quick lunch break. Aslan, Noah and Josiah worked with their boys (Josiah (16) Caleb (14) Noah (12) Levi (9) Isaiah (7) and Elijah (5) )...as you can see, we had 2 Josiah's and 2 Noah's. Our Noah's are only 5 days apart in age too!
In this picture Aslan, Josiah P, and Jonathan Montoya is working (Well, it doesn't look like it but they were) by digging dirt to fill in a hole that needed filling on the MEDA grounds.

They also spent a lot of time sanding and staining doors for the dorm rooms.

Here Noah and Noah are taking a break from work to whittle with pocket knives.

Even though they did a lot of hot, hard work, they all seemed to really enjoy it because they got to talk and build friendships as they worked. They also got quite a bit accomplished!!
