The team was blessed by Elmer and Pedro Junior this week. Pastor Pedro wants his young people to be involved in serving others in their community and surrounding communities. So this is the second time they have helped us with a project. The team leader, Ray, shared how blessed they were to have these two young men who worked diligently all week mixing the mescal for the home of Wilmer. The team quickly grabbed shovels and sifted sand, mixed mescal and whatever these two young men needed to make their job easier. They did this all day every day for four days. But on the last day Wilmer invited them to come back for the home dedication which I thought was most thoughtful of Wilmer. Wilmer also appreciated every bucket of mescal they turned over for his home. The North American team saw Jesus truly at work in their Honduran brothers. Kim during her devotional the second night read out of Philippians 3:7-11 and then asked the question "What can we do to be more like Jesus?" Some answered be in his Word to learn who HE truly is. I think they saw Jesus working right beside them this week in Palenque through their Honduran brothers. Kim shared she is a new creation in Christ and if we are all creations in Christ we need to act like we are. We need to discover our weaknesses and rely totally on God. Once again time in HIS Word and time in prayer with HIM to be like HIM. We have to have the personal relationship with Jesus to be like HIM in our daily walk.
