October 21, 2009 Eye Exams Set To The Music Of Snoring Policemen

In the midst of the “Political Crisis” in Honduras, on October 21, 2009 to be exact, I decided to take advantage of the situation to be able to reach an unreached people group with an Eyeglass Brigade.


Many of the police from outside of Tegucigalpa, police who live in small rural villages, are in town for the Congressional and Supreme Court legislated “Coup”. I still don’t understand why this is called a coup instead of an impeachment. These men have rare access to healthcare. So I plotted and planned and was able to get permission to go to where they were staying and have an eye brigade to check all of their eyes.


Rolando, of COVA, performs priliminary eye exams.


Victor Montoya follows with more exams.


Since there were 800 extra police in town, they were sleeping on the floor and outside at a military installation. We went there. As they came in from their ALL NIGHT foot patrols, they were surprised to see that we had taken over their dorm room.






All lined up and we gave them an eye exam and then they crashed on the floor to sleep. It was interesting doing eye exams to the background music of many snoring cops. I should really write a book about all the crazy things I do as a missionary! It never ends! There is always one surprise after another.

For those of you who fast and pray, please pray for Honduras and for the missionaries and Christians who live here.

Honduras, Honduras!

This is one of the "peaceful" protesters. And President Obama and Hillary Clinton say they want this man's leader reinstalled as president.
This woman was one of the shoppers terrorized by the "peaceful protesters". Behind you see Popeyes exploding and in flames. This is just a couple of miles from my house.

This is the vice president of Congress who was brutally attacked by "peaceful protesters".

Holding off their "friends" and "peaceful protesters" from continuing to kick the vice president of Congress.

This is the vice president of congress and these people are kicking an unarmed man.

Yesterday the military and police finally started arresting these people.
These are the so called "peaceful marches". Notice the rocks in their hands.

Popeyes Chicken after the bombing.

This is the Burger King a block and a half from my house.

"We the poor are many. Culture cannot be bought or sold."

Unfortunately this is exactly what is happening. Money from FARC, a confirmed 3 million dollars, is coming into Honduras to pay these "artists" and other "poor" who are marching.
"Artists against the coup"

"Art = Revolution"

I suppose destroying property is art. How warped is this thinking?

"Get out of the country traitors of the nation." "People that hit" "Trash" "Judas"

I want you to notice how nicely painted this wall was.

Many Catholic leaders have come out in agreement with the "coup", since the old deposed president broke so many of the laws. This is the "resistance" response to this.

Bishop Andino is below the elite"

"SOLD Catholic"

In other words they think he sold out to the new government.

This says "live Che" talking about Che Gonzalez and "Always until victory"

This is personal property ruined.

The head of the Human Rights Commission is Ramon Custodio. Because he agrees that the former president should have been disposed and that human rights violations are not happening on a large scale like the protesters are stating, they wrote this, "Sold Ramon Custodio Judas".

Patriotic or die!!
"Patriotic or die"

This is the front of the Catholic church in the center of town. I can not make out what this says exactly, but I think it says something like "Christ serves the mafia"

Popeyes after the bombing. This is 2 miles from my house. The march started close to there, came to a block from my house and then returned and blew up a bus and this Popeyes.

This bus was burned on Tuesday about 2 miles from my house. People were on the bus when rioters threw the Molotov cocktail which made the bus explode.

Shortly thereafter they exploded the Popeyes Chicken place with another bomb. Patrons and children were inside. Thankfully all got out alive.

This is Pollo Campero less than 2 blocks from my house.

Notice the colors of the flag over this man's mouth. Honduras colors are royal blue and white.

A teacher, yes a teacher painting...

This was the Little Cesar's Pizza at the public university.

This car was parked in front of the public university.

Dunkin Donuts at the public university.

Advertising signs on the street close to my house.

I have tried to remain silent on my blog spot about what is going on in Honduras, but I now have to break my silence. People are asking for the truth and I am going to tell it like it is. Vandals from Venezuela and Nicaragua are tearing our country apart, especially "American" food chains and anything that has to do with the USA. Below are a few photos which speak for themselves. Pray for the peace of Honduras and pray for our police and military!

I did not take the photos above. They were taken by ......Christian Jose Romero

Honduras, Honduras!

This is a photo of Honduras' former president with his best friend Chavez of Venezuela. The two of them speak terribly about the USA but now both are asking for USA intervention to restore Zelaya to office. I cannot give credit for the photo because I do not know the photographer.

This is a photo of Honduras' former president with non other than Fidel Castro or a Castro double. Many here in Honduras believe that Castro is dead and that they use a double for photo shoots. I cannot give credit for the photo because I do not know the photographer.

Signs near my house. "Death to Micheletti." and a word I think is a bad word which I do not know what is. Micheletti is the new President of Honduras.

The bus explosion on Tuesday. This bus exploded when the "peaceful marchers" were walking by.

Outside the Catholic Church in downtown Tegucigalpa. The worst words have been blacked out.

Hummmmm I was going home on the bus and .....

This is the park and the Burger King a block from my house. Notice the "peaceful resistance" kicking out the window? My poodle stayed under the bed most of the day when this happened.

The street a block from my house.

The Burger King a block from my house. Please notice the "peaceful unarmed marchers" as reported by CNN.

When I wrote the photographer to ask permission to use his photos his response was, "Sure! Please help our country! We need to spread the truth behind Zelaya's goals, actually Chavez plans to get the ownership of our country!" Thank you, Christian Jose Romero
