leg. At 1:00 AM we landed at Olathe. The trip had been a great success. We had learned to negotiate Latin American
airspace and had connected with as many missionaries as time allowed. There is always a
need for the volunteers and there are many projects for the small groups that
we will be able to carry. And there is a need to carry certain
supplies. |

in Mexico we wanted to see for ourselves
what Mexican procedures were like. As
it turned out the stop went very well with very |

USA and cleared customs at Brownsville, TX.
It was here that we had the only bad weather of the trip. It was raining and we had to make an
instrument landing but all went well. After a quick snack
we took off for our last |

West Missionair team started construction
on a house for her. We found her doing
very well in her new house and she had a full time job working in the
cafeteria of a nearby university. On Thursday we left
La Ceiba for Guatemala City where we met with Bret Tredway and his

would involve a fuel stop at Vera Cruz, Mexico. We had heard several horror stories about

house for Evelyna, a lady with nine
children who has been left to raise them herself. While we were there a group from western
Canada was laying concrete blocks for the house. In order that we may meet with as many
missionaries as possible in the time we had available, Mike arranged a
meeting at his home on Tuesday night where we met our old friends Kenton and
Saundi Brown. The Browns have been in
Honduras for a number years. Kenton is a computer and electronics expert and
