Sutton and I have felt the call to move to Honduras confirmed and reconfirmed. Though the plans seem to become more uncertain. We were going to go to Honduras in June with a SLP team. While there we were planning on sitting down with Tseboath, the church we feel lead to serve with, to discuss our move and ministry possibilities there. However, the team has been unsuccessful in raising the funds for the schools, so that trip is cancelled. We have plans to move in with a family for starters. Now that family is struggling to keep their house and are having to make hard decisions. In addition to all that, the reported dangers in Honduras have only gotten worse over the past year. Several ministries have pulled out or are putting their trips there on hold.
Yet despite all this, we have felt the call from God to move there, strengthen. So we are going. Exactly when? I don't know. (Ecclesiastes 3:1) Still feeling fourth quarter of this year or maybe even sooner. Where will we live? I don't know. (Psalms 32:8) Hoping we can stay with the same family and be a help to them. What exactly will we be doing? I don't know. (Ephesians 2:10) God's ministry. Am I still going to be doing solar installations? I sure hope so. I love doing it. (Psalm 37:4) If nothing else there are 87 solar systems in Honduras that could use some checking up on. How on earth are we going to pay bills? I don't know. (Philippians 4:19) Are we still going? Yes. Are we crazy? Probably. (Proverbs 3:5-6) We cannot let fear divert us from the path God is leading us down. What kind of Christ follower would we be if we did that? (Matthew 10:38-39) How can you help us? PRAYER, PRAYER ... and some more PRAYER. Financial support is also very much needed. If you feel led to give please email me your pledge. I will contact you with account details when we have that part ironed out.
