Thirty five years ago I married my best friend, Mike. At that time we did not know on February 15, 2016 we would be serving the Lord in Honduras and seeing our dream come true. We picked up the "Move In" team at the airport which consisted of six dear friends and brothers in Christ. One of the team members, a young lady named Rita could not come on the 15th but came two days later. Mike and I have been beyond blessed for the last six years as we have served as On Site Coordinators in Honduras. We arrived on December 28, 2009 not knowing Spanish or much about a lot of the ministry except we came for ten years ourselves to build homes for the people of Honduras. As the year past we discussed how awesome it would be to expand the ministry and open up a way for the Hondurans to have a place to go have retreats and other conferences. Well, after prayer and a lot of giving folks along the way and those who sweated in the scorching heat of Pavana, Choluteca, Honduras our dream became a reality. So on February 15, our 35th wedding anniversary, we pick up the move in team. That evening we took them out for dinner to celebrate our anniversary. Mike surprised me with a bouquet of flowers provided by our sweet waitress, Suyapa and a sign written in Spanish to me saying Ginger, 35 years and it has been great. Long story but a sweet and funny one all at the same time. I am blessed to serve the Lord by my best friend and husband. God has truly blessed us over the years and now He continues to bless us while serving HIM here in Honduras. To God be the glory.
