Mission Trip to San Pedro Sula, HondurasTwenty of our congregation will be going to Honduras through Disciple Makers. We will be helping an English speaking school by doing a vacation Bible school program, some construction, and other projects. We will also be fellowshipping and encouraging the church there. One day our group will head to a village to provide a medical clinic for the people who rarely get to see a doctor.
Those going are :
Connie Clayton, Amy & Josh Cummins, Daryl Emery & Hannah Marsh, Tracy Ellen Florer, Kent & Debbie Jones, Tina Jones, Jim & Brenda Montgomery, Ron, Karan, & Trent Moser, Betty Newman, Donna Parker, Jason Shields, Barbara Smith, Scott Smith, and Laura Teegarden
We leave on Saturday, June 2, and will return on Saturday, June 9. Please keep us in your prayers.
If you would like to see what we are doing while we are there here is a link to see pictures of our group in action. These should be available sometime by Sunday, June 3.
Update:
Our trip to Honduras was absolutely amazing. Our brothers and sisters in Honduras were so kind and generous. It was so evident that Christ was in their hearts. I can only hope they received half the blessings that we did.
While there we were able to participate in the church's cell groups, provided a VBS for about 200 children who attend New Generation Bilingual School, pour a concrete slab around a tree where children will eventually be able to eat their lunches, paint some walls that surround the school and paint a mural on the entrance wall, held a medical clinic in Los Pinos, which is in the mountains, and also visit the Mayan ruins in Copan.
The seventeen of us who went (three were not able to go because of a family illness and passports not arriving in time) were drawn closer to God and to each other. Though we spanned five different decades we developed a close bond as we worked together for the Lord's glory. We plan to go back in two years, if it is the Lord's will.
