Hello friends and family!
I hope this letter finds you well. I am sorry that I leave you all on cliff hangers between updates. When I last wrote you I was stuck in my house due to nation wide curfews after the ousted president Manuel Zelaya came back. The curfews fortunately ended after the first week. At first there were a lot of protests. During the curfews, a mass of Zelaya supporters broke into a supermarket and an electronics store near where Katia lives and looted it clean. Then the new government made it illegal to protest (as well as took certain opposition media off the air). They eventually allowed it again but the streets have been calm since. Zelaya is still seeking refuge in the Brazilian Embassy (about 4 or 5 blocks from my house) and his people have been in talks with the new government's people since he came back. They have still reached no agreement. We have just been in stale mate for a while. I think the new government is just trying to make it to the election at the end of November. Recently it's been very calm and no news one way or another.
Also, many of you have asked me about the prayer request I sent you about my fiance's visa. We want to come to the US for our honeymoon as well as have a reception in the US so that you could all come. However, as I wrote before, the US embassy stopped giving visas. Well, they haven't changed their minds. The embassy is still not giving visas. We decided that in order to plan for everything, we need to know two months before. So if I hear nothing by November 1st, we will make other plans. That means, we have one week for a miracle. Please pray! I would especially like to have this reception so that you could all be there. Please be praying for that as well as our whole political situations. Thanks!
God bless!
