Team 123 Poplar Spring Baptist, Bunn Construction/Evangelism

On September 16, 2010 Poplar Springs Baptist Church out of Bunn, North Carolina arrived ready to serve their Lord and Savior by building a home and also sharing the gospel through evangelism. Each day before the team headed out to the job they formed a circle between the house and the bunkhouse to say a prayer. They arrived the first day ready to get to work. This team got right to work along side Pastor Ancelmo, Carlos, the owner of the house, Carlos' father-in-law and several neighbors and friends. The team gathered around the first block for the prayer which was done by Pastor Steve of Poplar Springs. Pastor G, construction team leader, gave the team a quick lesson in laying block and they were on there way to building Carlos, Mileydis and there two boys, Fabricio and Daniel a home. While the block was being laid there was a group of five who went out with a couple of the ladies from the church, Inglesia Bautista LaLibertad, laying the foundation of Jesus Christ. Poplar Springs brought along an evangelism team who was on fire for Jesus Christ. Relationships were being formed throughout the week with the construction team as well as the evangelism team. There was one thing this team learned this week, "NO PROBLEM". Pastor G's favorite phrase with the team on the construction was "NO PROBLEM". So that became the phrase of the week for Poplar Springs. . It was beautiful to see how this team worked as a team and got this family a beautiful home. During the week we found out there was a young lady there who came to the home of Carlos' mother-in-law the same day the team arrived on the job. Oh how overwhelming that most have been for her. But after a couple of days when she found out the team was there to build a home she was more receptive of the Americans. Also the grandmother is raising three of her grandchildren. So this is a very giving and caring family who Carlos and Mileydis are apart of. At some point during the week the evangelism team shared some bible stories and crafts under a tree away from the construction site with the young lady, Fabricio, Daniel and some other children. The team did an awesome job with the construction of the home and evangelizing. To God be the glory for all the beauty which took place during this week with the Hondurans and Poplar Springs.
