Our next stop was at a special community called Colonia Manuel Valladares. We were able to spend two days with these wondrful people. During the eye clinic the patients got examined, got their eye glasses or whatever they may need and then they drop by the last station called the salvation station. Several team members this week led many people to Christ and had several rededications. They used the evaga cube and even a soccer ball with all the many colors of the salvation story on it. God uses many tools through us to reach others to Jesus Christ. Thank you Amy, Ann, Chad, Josh and Steve for sharing the gospel with the people of Honduras. Also at this community there was a lady getting her eyes examined by Josh and Nancy. The more she was refracted and the clearer her eyes became the more excited she got. Finally when they found the right strength she shouted I can see!!!! Josh said that was definitely his God moment for the day. Phil had a man he and Meida were working with who needed bi-focals. The team did not have bi-focals with them. Phil wears bi-focals. Phil said he heard a very small voice say "Why did you come here today?" Phil took off his own eye glasses and gave them to this gentleman. This was a humbling time for all of us.
"They came to Bethsaida, and some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him. He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit on the man's eyes and put his hands on him, Jesus asked ,"Do you see anything?" He looked up and said "I see people; they look like trees walking around ." Once more Jesus put his hands on the man's eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. "
Mark 8:22-25
