Moments of Peace in Honduras

You and your family live in Honduras. Every day, you look forward to gathering around the table to share breakfast together. It is one of your favorite moments of peace. You and your husband have two children, a girl and a boy, who you love very much. A few weeks ago, you found out you had a third child on the way. Each evening, after the children come home from school, your husband joins the neighborhood watch team. There have been rumors of gang activity close by, and he wants to play his role in keeping your spot of peace safe. You are nervous for his safety, but you know that you cannot stop him from going, so you pray that he will be okay. Plus, his father and brother are part of the neighborhood watch as well, so you tell yourself that it will all be okay.
