Great Da;ys in Honduras

On Thursday the Evangalism teams were spreading the good news in Ojojona while others were doing the clothes distribution. The Lord added seven to the church that day. Some were baptized in their own pilas and others went down the road a few miles to Santa Anna to the church building.
Friday a crew went to Los Pinos to build a house for a family of six. The family was blessed with a house and will be sleeping in that house this very night. We even moved their bunk bed, full size mattress and small refrigerator (which had almost no food in it) into the house. This was actually done before the fourth wall was put on. Others went back to Nueva Oriental to work on the classrooms. One Bible study was conducted there which resulted in a baptism. One of our very own was baptized as well. Another study on Los Pinos added another sister. The granddaughters were baptized 4 years ago then the mother later and now the grandmother is a Christian as well. God is Good! A trip to the market to buy fresh fruits and vegetables had everyone going out in groups of 5 to buy the assigned fruit or veggie. As a result over 350 families in Los Pinos were taken food boxes of fresh food. This is a rare luxury for most living in this community.
Tonight the group was able to go to the Jesus Statue for a devotional and enjoyed the singing, watching a plane land, and just enjoying the cool weather.

Your blog is such a blessing to those of us who are keeping up with what is going on in Honduras. We like to know what our team is doing and the blessings that they are bringing to others. I'm thrilled that the team is building a bridge and a school that will benefit the entire community. I know that these efforts will reap a rich harvest for the Lord. All glory goes to Him. Thanks for your leadership in this, Marc.
In Him, Steve and Valerie
