On Sept 10 while First Baptist Southern Pines was here was Children's Day. So after the completion of the home we had a pinata, Sponge Bob, for the children full of candy. They allowed all the children or most all the children to participate in hitting the pinata. As time went on though the size of the children changed drastically. They seemed to have gotten bigger. Pastor David, George and Mike were out there hitting Sponge Bob. Finally Mike knocked poor old Sponge Bob one hard time and candy flew everywhere. Adults and children alike were scampering for the candy. On the next morning we went to Sunday church with Pastor G and Nora. Pastor David led the message from Ephesians 4:1-7 and 11-16 Commitments to Jesus Christ. Pastor David read from John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." Pastor David shared Jesus is the Lord of our life. In Christ is life and light. We are one body, people of God. My hope is in Jesus Christ and to then be encouragers to others. Pastor G then did a follow up of Pastor David's sermon simply saying "Go and make disciples of all nations, take up your cross daily and follow me." Wow this was a powerful message coming from two different pastors but the same God. Once again we enjoyed hearing Franz, Egla, Joy and John(playing the guitar) singing Amazing Grace. Once again on Sunday the church had provided over 120 children with a chicken wing and slaw for Children's Day. They also had a pinata as well. I felled to share with you all First Baptist had a special guest, Flat Kylie from Forest City, North Carolina. She is seen in serveral of the pictures throughout the blog. We always welcome special guests to Honduras.
