The purpose of this missions trip is to be Jesus' hands and feet. We get to partner with churches and pastors to distribute clothes, hygiene products, toys, and food to those in the village who need it. We aren't ending world hunger in a day... but to those who receive the food, it does take some of the stress away. They villages we visit are so far away from the city. They don't necessarily have the opportunity of purchasing food. We are able to give that box of food to some of the most grateful people.
I am always amazed at the joy that the Hondurans feel when we are able to hand them something. They are so thankful and so receptive.
3. Monday...
What a day! We got to visit two villages, and they were 2 that I had visited the first time I went. I remembered some of the faces I had seen 4 years ago! That was really cool. I did struggle a lot this day. I was in pain from travel, and I had taken some pain medicine, so I was a little foggy and out of it, but it was a good day! At the first church, I got to bond with one of our translators, Adriel. He is the brother of another translator who actually lives here in the United States and goes to our church. I am very thankful for the time that we got to share. He and I passed out toys together and the time we got to spend really bonded us for the rest of the week. I also got to witness my beautiful Honduran friends, Andrea and Nataly lead our team. They were the two youngest translators the first time I went, and this year they were our lead translators. It was so great to see how much they have grown. I was so blessed by the way that they lead this week.
I didn't necessarily have a "God moment" at the first church, and that was okay. We all got to pray over the people in that village. I really enjoyed that. And when we were done praying, we got to give a lot of hugs. A LOT. And as we were hugging people this week, they were in return, praying for us. It was beautiful.
In the second village, I prayed over two women in specific. I was just very drawn to them. The one had two little boys with her. As I began to pray for her, she began to weep. I didn't understand her language, and she didn't understand mine. I couldn't ask what she wanted prayer for, so I kinda just went for it. I found myself praying for her family, that God would provide for her needs, that he would open her eyes so she could see him, and his heart so she could feel him, and I prayed for protection. These were the typical things that I would pray for, unless I really felt the Holy Spirit leading me in a different direction. When I was done praying with her, another mother caught my eye. I went over and prayed with her and she too started crying. This time, I hugged her. When we finished praying I hugged her again and she just held me and cried and cried and cried. So I held her and continued to pray for her. When she let go, I asked a translator if she could ask the woman what I could specifically be praying for and the woman said she wanted prayer for her home. And again, I was able to pray for her.
It is humbling. I was overcoming several times watching the passion that the Honduran people have for the Lord. The faith that these people have for the Lord is mind blowing. We don't go down and try to teach them how to be a Christian. I think that I personally realize what it means to be a Christian by watching the people of Honduras.
I cried on Monday.
4. Tuesday
Are you still with me? Tuesday was fun! We went to a village that didn't have a church building. We were in a big clearing next to a soccer field. I really liked this village. There were a lot of kids, and they were just absolutely fun! I got to play the snapping game with several boys. There was this little girl named Franny who just really touched all of our team members hearts. She was so giving and she was serving right along beside us. The village was just a lot of fun. It was really hot, and I think that many of us on the trip had to take small breaks to get out of the heat and rest. This village was not expecting rain for several months. No rain means no food, so when our leader in Honduras was praying for them, he was praying that God would provide for them. When we hugged the people in the village, it was neat again to have them praying over us. We couldn't understand each other, but God understands us both and that connects us.
Tuesday evening got a little crazy! We were invited by the mayor to come to his town. The town has natural hot springs that we got to swim in. We were at this little resort area. There were two hot spring pools and then another big swimming pool. I got totally stuck in the swimming pool and had to have my dear cousin Kara, and new friend Olivia push me out of the pool which was pretty hilarious. But the funniness didn't stop there. OH NO! There was a news crew that was recording our time at the little resort, and they interviewed the mayor and our team leader. It was pretty great. However, some of us weren't necessarily mindful of where the cameras were at. After swimming, I slipped back into my shorts and a tshirt. After a few minutes, I was like HEY! I forgot to put some deodorant on. So I grabbed two of the girls on my team and I asked them to make a wall for me so I could put some on. I like did it under my shirt and as I was finishing my second armpit, I look up and standing in the corner is the camera man and he has his camera pointing right at me......... SOOOOOOOOOOO some town in Honduras got to watch a loco gringo putting on deodorant while being recorded for the news....
Tuesday night, was major for me. I have felt the call to be a missionary for many, many years. The last few years, my heart has felt very restless. I feel anxious a lot, and I am always searching for something, but I never know what. And Tuesday night, I was just so overcome with a sense of peace. I felt s sense of being Home. For so long, I have felt like I am not where I should be. And Tuesday night it was made clearer to me...

Honduras Part 1
I have been back in the United States for approximately 1 day, 22 hours, 3 minutes and 29 seconds, and let me tell you, I miss Honduras.
I am sure that this comes as no surprise to you as you have probably already read somewhere about my love for Honduras, or you have received a snapchat or a tweet referencing said "Honduras." To you it may seem like no big deal, but to me it has been really hard being back here. There are many reasons why I would rather be in Honduras. Soooooooooo instead of trying to convey over and over the reason I want to be in Honduras, here is a post, explaining my thought process since coming back home.
1. Yes, I did miss things about America while I was on the missions trip. I missed...

Soooooooooo instead of trying to convey over and over the reason I want to be in Honduras, here is a post, explaining my thought process since coming back home.
1. Yes, I did miss things about America while I was on the missions trip. I missed...
- My mom. I really missed my mom. She is often the one who helps me sort out how I am feeling, and I was having a lot of feelings in Honduras and it was hard to not have her there with me.
- My dog. I missed Lucy a lot. I missed petting her and reading the thoughts in her head in my best "Lucy" voice.
- Being able to flush TP down the toilet. This is just a cultural thing. See in Honduras, the pipes can't handle tp, so when you use the restroom, you throw the tp in a waste basket. Its not as hard to remember as it sounds, and it doesn't like gross me out or anything, but I grew up flushing tp, so I am glad I can do that again.
- My Bed... with all 9 of my pillows, my 2 blankets and my giant puffy comforter.
- My baby....Bubbles, my little car and wonderful companion.
- My dear friends, Jacob and Joe. Even though I got to text them almost every evening while in Honduras, I missed being able to annoy them constantly with my use of emoji and excessive exclamation points. ;) those guys are pretty great.
- The wonderful Gorman family. Laughing with Bryan and Michelle, sitting in their basement watching television, swimming with my girls, rocking out with the windows down... it was weird to not see them this week.
- I only missed Netflix a little bit. Like, hardly at all, but still I kinda wanted to watch Psych all week.
- Not sweating constantly. In Honduras, I sweat constantly. Here, I don't. I missed that.
- Jeans. I missed my skinny jeans. and I missed straight hair. I really like my curly hair, but I missed being able to straighten my hair, it is shallow I know.
Other than that, I really didn't miss a whole lot. I was very content.
2. What happened Sunday?
Well, we landed in Honduras on Saturday afternoon. We really did get to relax and settle in before we began a crazy week. Sunday we went to church... WOW! Picture your home church. Churches in Honduras are nothing like that. We went on Sunday morning and Friday evening to a church. I wish I could explain to you how incredible both churches were, but there are really no words to describe them. Everyone sings, everyone claps, or moves when they are singing or has their hands raised or their eyes closed. They know how to pray. They get so passionate about the Lord, its the most incredible thing ever. They are joyful when they go up to give their tithe. They actually get out of their seats and all go up to the front of the church and put their money in. We sang one song, that lasted 30 minutes. Honduran believers don't put a time limit on the Holy Spirit. They just let Him come and do His thing for as long as He wants. Church isn't quiet because people are saying Amen, or praying. There were dancers who were on stage dancing with their whole heart. It was beautiful. It is how I imagine Heaven to be.
After church on Sunday, we learned a bunch of silly songs to sing in the villages with the kids. And as it is in America, it is in Honduras... I still can't dance, but man oh man did I try! I got to spend time with our leaders beautiful little daughter, she was adorable!
After dancing, we separated all of the give away items we had so that each village would get enough stuff. It was a good day! And yes, I cried on Sunday.
And now, I will end here, so that I will not lose your interest, but I plan on going through each day. I am still processing it, and I want to be able to write it down so that I can remember. I also want those who gave us donations, or those who prayed for us, to be able to see the impact that Honduras has had.

Recovery and the Honduras Trip
Oh look, I finally decided to write a post... It's about time (isn't that right Ashenfelters? ;))
So here is a quick update, I am recovering really well. I am in a lot of pain, but my movement and range of motion is really good. I will begin therapy on Thursday of this week, and I feel very ready for that.
I have been spending a lot of time at home, but I have had many friends who have come to visit me, which has kept my spirits up. Today was a busy day with graduation parties and our first HONDURAS meeting!
And as soon as I got home, I just had to write to ask all of my friends to help me out! My dad, my sister and I will be heading to Honduras at the end of July. We have all been at least once before, and we are super excited to be heading back. Our fundraising is going really well, but we still have a ways to go. If you would be interested in donating (tax deductible!!), let me know and I will gladly help you out with that ;)
This post though, is because we really need giveaway items. We will be filling three suitcases (up to 50lbs.) with small items that we can hand out to our new friends in Honduras. If you would be interested in helping us out with that, allow me to tell you what we are looking for...
This is a very short, and not very deep post, so I will try to write again. I pray that you are blessed during this week, and that you find much joy and happiness!

Easter- Isaiah 53
Here is Isaiah 53:
2-6The servant grew up before God—a scrawny seedling,
a scrubby plant in a parched field.
There was nothing attractive about him,
nothing to cause us to take a second look.
He was looked down on and passed over,
a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand.
One look at him and people turned away.
We looked down on him, thought he was scum.
But the fact is, it was our pains he carried—
our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us.
We thought he brought it on himself,
that God was punishing him for his own failures.
But it was our sins that did that to him,
that ripped and tore and crushed him—our sins!
He took the punishment, and that made us whole.
Through his bruises we get healed.
We’re all like sheep who’ve wandered off and gotten lost.
We’ve all done our own thing, gone our own way.
And God has piled all our sins, everything we’ve done wrong,
on him, on him.
a scrubby plant in a parched field.
There was nothing attractive about him,
nothing to cause us to take a second look.

We’re all like sheep who’ve wandered off and gotten lost.
We’ve all done our own thing, gone our own way.
And God has piled all our sins, everything we’ve done wrong,
on him, on him.
7-9 He was beaten, he was tortured,
but he didn’t say a word.
Like a lamb taken to be slaughtered
and like a sheep being sheared,
he took it all in silence.
Justice miscarried, and he was led off—
and did anyone really know what was happening?
He died without a thought for his own welfare,
beaten bloody for the sins of my people.
They buried him with the wicked,
threw him in a grave with a rich man,
Even though he’d never hurt a soul
or said one word that wasn’t true.

10 Still, it’s what God had in mind all along,
to crush him with pain.
The plan was that he give himself as an offering for sin
so that he’d see life come from it—life, life, and more life.
And God’s plan will deeply prosper through him.
to crush him with pain.
The plan was that he give himself as an offering for sin
so that he’d see life come from it—life, life, and more life.
And God’s plan will deeply prosper through him.
11-12 Out of that terrible travail of soul,
he’ll see that it’s worth it and be glad he did it.
Through what he experienced, my righteous one, my servant,
will make many “righteous ones,”
as he himself carries the burden of their sins.
Therefore I’ll reward him extravagantly—
the best of everything, the highest honors—
Because he looked death in the face and didn’t flinch,
because he embraced the company of the lowest.
He took on his own shoulders the sin of the many,
he took up the cause of all the black sheep.
he’ll see that it’s worth it and be glad he did it.

As I was reading this last night, I was overcome by just how much God loves us. I hope as you go throughout your Easter celebration, you remember the sacrifice that Christ mad for us. While we were living in sin, He came and He died for us. He wasn't even just mostly dead, He died. But the wonderful news is that He rose up and He came back to be with us, and now He sits in Heaven, waiting to return and call us into His arms. I am so blessed to be living in His love and grace. There is nothing anyone else can ever do for us that will even begin to the amount of love Christ showed by giving up His life.

Genesis and Jeremiah
I was reading the story of Noah last night. I am not the best when it comes to spending time in God's word, and I have no idea why. But literally every time I open my Bible, I am immediately reminded of how much God loves us. This "realization" of His love always overwhelms me and I feel so empowered. Anyways, last night as I was reading, I came to the end of Genesis chapter 8 when I read this: I will never again curse the ground because of the human race, even though everything they think or imagine is bent toward evil from childhood. I will never again destroy all living things. I was overcome with the thought that we have been failing God for years. He created us, even though He knows that we are going to screw things up and in essence, let Him down. He says "Everything we think or imagine is bent toward evil from our childhood" and yet, He still created us, and He still loves us.
It breaks my heart. I know that there is nothing I could do to make God love me anymore or any less. I know that His grace and is a free gift and He gives forgiveness when we ask for it. But, I cannot help but feel heartbroken over the fact that we let God down so much. We have been doing it since the beginning of time. It is so sad. And as I was reflecting on this, and my feelings towards this verse, another one came to mind. This one is found in Jeremiah 31 and it says: God told them, “I’ve never quit loving you and never will. Expect love, love, and more love! And so now I’ll start over with you and build you up again. I don't know about you, but I get chills when I read that. God, in all of His perfectness and holiness, will never stop loving us flawed and broken sinners. He loves us so much. I wish that I could convey that to everyone. I wish that there was someway we could understand just a little bit of how much He loves us, but there is no way that we can. I am so thankful that even though my heart is bent towards evil from childhood, God will never quit loving me. I hope that as you read this, you are reminded too of how much He loves you.

Humuhumunukunukuapuaa and a Woka Woka
Well today I caught myself singing the song humuhumunukunukuapuaa from High School Musical 2 a lot. And I also listened to Woka Woka by Shaikra, so that is the title of my post tonight.
I haven't posted about what is going on in my life in a while, and I could use some therapy so here comes a blog post about what is going on in my life.

What Is Going On In My Life
By: Charlotte Walterhouse
I am continuing on in my work at Trinity Lutheran School and I absolutely love it! I find myself getting excited to do crafts with my kids, and I love reading books to them and I love bringing movies for them to watch that I used to watch when I was a little girl. This is how I know I am where I am supposed to be. I don't think that I ever grew out of being a five year old, I just got taller and slightly more fashionable (I sometimes do wish I could mismatch my outfit and wear pink cowgirl boots and tutus and not be judged.) I love being back in the school that I never wanted to leave. I love working with people who were so influential in my life and instrumental in helping me become the follower of Christ that I am today! I have found a wonderful friend in my co-worker Kristen. I also love laughing about high school and life in general with my other co-worker Taylor. I love how imaginative and sweet little kids can be and I will be honest, when they run up and hug my knees, or jump into my arms, or tell me they love me, sometimes it brings tears to my eyes. I am so happy being at Trinity.
I am also continuing my education through online classes at Ivy Tech. I have decided on Criminal Justice as a major. People who really know me, know that this major totally make sense for me. And those who don't might get a good laugh out of the thought of me ever being a police officer. Luckily for the universe, I don't want to be out on the streets catching bad guys and yelling at people, I want to work in the Juvenile Justice System. So I am going for my degree. God has given me such a peace about this. I know that He still has plans to use me as a missionary, but missionaries don't always have to live overseas in Africa or Asia. Sometimes they can be right next door to you.
And while I am on the topic of being a missionary, I have postponed my plans of going to YWAM (Youth With A Mission) for the time being. I still feel led to go, and I will when the time is right. I am continuing to have major problems with my right knee (the one I had 2 surgeries on this summer). Until we find out what will need to be done to fix it, I am postponing my plans of leaving the country. I am not going to lie and tell you that I am fine, because most days this is not the case. I have no strength to go on anymore and I know that each day it is the Lord who is carrying me through. Knee pain is a weird thing. It is time consuming. The tasks that should be easy to do become very difficult and being in constant pain is frustrating and exhausting. I spend a lot of time in my bed, or on the couch with ice packs on my knees. And just like this summer, being in pain can bring loneliness sometimes. It is hard to get out and do fun things, so you have to relay on people coming to you. I am very blessed to have a wonderful family who do everything they can to make sure that I am comfortable and cared for and I have awesome friends who let me vent whenever I am getting stressed out.
So that is where I am in life. I am just living it in the best way I can right now! I feel very blessed to be where I am. I know that God has big plans in the future, but until I get there I am content to wait and be patient. Life is a constant time of growing and I know that even in the never ending battle with my knees, God is still growing me! Also, being at home has given me the wonderful opportunity of watching Wheel or Fortune and Jeopardy every night while crocheting, so I definitely have the cool factor going for me ;)

You might be Charlotte if...(Part 2)
This is the second installment of my first post entitled You might be Charlotte if...
There are many things I do that are just silly, stupid of just plane weird. So here are a few more signs that you might be turning into Charlotte...
1. You eat waffles every week... Real homemade waffles, not the frozen ones by Eggo which are a really sad excuse for waffles. Seriously. I could write a whole blog dedicated to how delicious waffles are. The secret is to whip the egg whites a ton until they are super fluffy. That makes the waffles puff up. Also, do not put more than half a cup of batter in the waffle iron no matter how badly you want to. It will spill out and there will be waffle batter caked unto your waffle iron.
2. You average 3 episodes of Psych a week.... Even though you have watched all of them except for the current season and half of season 7. And you are constantly trying to decide who you lie better, Shawn or Gus... but on rare occasions, you really like Lassiter. Also, you love Buzz McNabb because he is the coolest police character ever. And even though you have seen some of the episodes multiple times, you still laugh at every joke because it is still so hilarious to you!
3. You have a crush on a Fish and Game Warden from California because you watch a show called Wild Justice and he is a superhero for saving all those deers and bears. His name is Mike Beals and if you could meet any celebrity, you would want to meet him because he is the coolest Fish and Game Warden ever.
4. You want to be a Fish and Game Warden even though you aren't really stable enough to hike the woods every day and if you ever saw a dead body in the woods you would probably pee your pants and pass out. But, deep down you have a desire to live in and be in nature every day.
5. You spend your weekends crocheting in your bed while watching shows about people in prison on Youtube. The scarfs you make are awesome and you really do enjoy watching shows about jail.
6. At least once a week you walk up to your mom and say, "I finally know what I want to do with my life!" And every time you say this sentence, some different life plan comes out. You also text your two best friends saying you know what you want to do with your life even though you know that they know that you are probably not serious and so they shouldn't take you too seriously at the moment.
7. One time you tried to climb the refrigerator while screaming, I am Spiderman. In your defense though, you had just watched Spiderman and you were really hyper and couldn't control yourself. Also after trying to climb the refrigerator, you stubbed your toe and cried because it hurt so badly.
8. You blast 80's music in your car when the weather is nice because it just puts you in such a wonderful mood! And you spend a lot of time trying to decide what your favorite 80's song is, but realize it is pointless because you love them all.
9. You hear weekly, "You are always getting hurt" or "You are always sick." And sometimes you just feel like telling people to shut up. Because it really isn't your fault. You don't intentionally go looking for injury or germs, they jut have a way of finding you! (Also this may be slightly passive aggressive.)
10. You walk around the house singing songs from Wicked or Frozen and that is basically it. I really don't feel like I need to explain this one, but I am pretty sure that both of my parents could sing Let It Go, For Good, Do You Want To Build A Snowman or Defying Gravity even though they have never heard the actual song but you sing it so frequently that they probably know all the words.
11. You have never dated anyone because you spend a lot of time at Walmart and the men at Walmart aren't really your type. Plus you are probably not their type because you don't wear Native American Wolf shirts with dream catchers on them, you are not squished into your clothing so tight that there is skin falling out, you don't have any full leg or arm tattoos of butterflies or Pooh Bear and you also don't have a hairstyle from the 80's such as a mullet. (I think that butterfly and Pooh Bear tattoos have the potential to be done tastefully).
12. You love driving your little car so much! Seriously, your Beetle makes you insanely happy and it is your dream car even if you will not admit it because it is kind of a lame dream car. It is your dream car because Barbie had a Bug and you wanted to be just like Barbie when you were a little girl. Also you played with Barbies until you were in 8th grade and sometimes you wish that it was still acceptable to play with Barbies because they are kinda fun sometimes.
13. You made a second list about yourself exposing all of your secrets because you hope that it will make people laugh and provide them with some enjoyment.
There are many things I do that are just silly, stupid of just plane weird. So here are a few more signs that you might be turning into Charlotte...

5. You spend your weekends crocheting in your bed while watching shows about people in prison on Youtube. The scarfs you make are awesome and you really do enjoy watching shows about jail.
6. At least once a week you walk up to your mom and say, "I finally know what I want to do with my life!" And every time you say this sentence, some different life plan comes out. You also text your two best friends saying you know what you want to do with your life even though you know that they know that you are probably not serious and so they shouldn't take you too seriously at the moment.
7. One time you tried to climb the refrigerator while screaming, I am Spiderman. In your defense though, you had just watched Spiderman and you were really hyper and couldn't control yourself. Also after trying to climb the refrigerator, you stubbed your toe and cried because it hurt so badly.
8. You blast 80's music in your car when the weather is nice because it just puts you in such a wonderful mood! And you spend a lot of time trying to decide what your favorite 80's song is, but realize it is pointless because you love them all.
9. You hear weekly, "You are always getting hurt" or "You are always sick." And sometimes you just feel like telling people to shut up. Because it really isn't your fault. You don't intentionally go looking for injury or germs, they jut have a way of finding you! (Also this may be slightly passive aggressive.)
10. You walk around the house singing songs from Wicked or Frozen and that is basically it. I really don't feel like I need to explain this one, but I am pretty sure that both of my parents could sing Let It Go, For Good, Do You Want To Build A Snowman or Defying Gravity even though they have never heard the actual song but you sing it so frequently that they probably know all the words.
11. You have never dated anyone because you spend a lot of time at Walmart and the men at Walmart aren't really your type. Plus you are probably not their type because you don't wear Native American Wolf shirts with dream catchers on them, you are not squished into your clothing so tight that there is skin falling out, you don't have any full leg or arm tattoos of butterflies or Pooh Bear and you also don't have a hairstyle from the 80's such as a mullet. (I think that butterfly and Pooh Bear tattoos have the potential to be done tastefully).
12. You love driving your little car so much! Seriously, your Beetle makes you insanely happy and it is your dream car even if you will not admit it because it is kind of a lame dream car. It is your dream car because Barbie had a Bug and you wanted to be just like Barbie when you were a little girl. Also you played with Barbies until you were in 8th grade and sometimes you wish that it was still acceptable to play with Barbies because they are kinda fun sometimes.
13. You made a second list about yourself exposing all of your secrets because you hope that it will make people laugh and provide them with some enjoyment.
