Update - March 10

The readjustment back to life in the States is more difficult than the adjustment to Honduran life. I am doing well, but definitely have days and moments of overwhelming emotion. I feel like I am part of two worlds, and I don’t fully belong in either one of them. I think the most difficult thing is that there is no way for me to reconcile the two. Though I am glad to be in either place, my heart continuously longs for the other.

I am currently living with Craig and Stephanie (Britten) Kline. They were gracious enough to take in a vagabond. It’s a nice set up because I am able to serve them too, which gives me purpose and joy. My current address is 377 Lakewood St, Detroit, MI 48215. My cell number is (313)434-8000.

I find myself without many people’s contact information, so if you like would me to have your number etc, please send me an email.

Because any funds that are now collected are being sent to Honduras for scholarships, I thought I would include a thank you letter from one of the students.

Trujillo, Colon Feb 10th, 2007

Hello dear brothers and sisters,

It is very nice to be able to write you and wish you rich and abundant blessings. I would like to thank God for putting good people in this world and you are those good people.

Thank you so much for helping me realize my dreams and goals. I am very grateful and I hope that one day, when I graduate, I will be able to invite you to my graduation because you are special people. May God bless you a lot. I request prayers for my marriage, my spiritual life and my studies.

One more time, thank you. My family also sends their greetings and is very grateful. Your help is very important and a blessing.

Your brother in Christ and friend,

Yefrin Rodriguez

God bless you!


Yefrin is currently in his second year of law school. He hopes to help the church with his legal knowledge when he graduates. Though he was recently married, he studies during the week in La Ceiba and travels to Trujillo on the weekends to be with his wife and family. He faithfully attends church whether he is in Trujillo or La Ceiba. He is actively involved with the youth group in both cities. Yefrin is a very respectful, respectable, studious, hardworking, young man. For just $265 per month, he is receiving a college education. However, he has special projects every quarter that require an extra $160.

If you are giving regularly, I and the students sincerely thank you for your commitment. If not, would you consider a one-time gift toward the education of these students?

A check may be made out to the Rochester Church of Christ, earmarked “Scholarship fund” and sent to the church at 250 West Avon Road, Rochester Hills, MI 48307.

If you would like more information, please feel free to contact me.

May God bless you wherever you dedicate your efforts.

In Him,

Nadine Taylor

I can fully relate to your sentiments about being 'home' here, and 'home' there...I too found it much more difficult to return and adjust to our life here in the US. So hard to explain it to others that have never experienced it for themselves. And the longing never quite goes away, at least mine hasn't yet...6 years later, still buring. There is purpose for this feeling. I thank God for the burden on your heart to serve our family in Honduras and for answering the call. Blessings to you! xo Shan

Whats up this is somewhat of off topic but I was wanting to know
if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually
code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
