Joel asked prior to coming could his team do the Lord's Supper. Of course you can but little did I know he was going to do it with Mike, our staff and me. What a humbling experience. We first of all had dinner together as a family. We did it earlier this day because Pastor Carlos was going to preach at his church that evening and we definitely wanted him there to participate in the Lord's Supper. Pastor John gathered us around the table, one Honduran, one North American and so on and so on. His lovely wife Kelly translated the message of the Lord's Supper as we all participated in a very sacred time in our ministry. As Pastor John passed the bread to Kelly to show our Honduran family how to do this Kelly then turned to our sweet Rudy as he looked at me with concern and I assured him with a smile it was okay to do this. Afterwards Pastor John allowed Pastor Carlos to say a few words and the Martha led us all in the hymn "Because He Lives" as we closed. This was the most humbling experience we have had in a while and Pastor Carlos shared how we need to do this as a family more often. Thank you Joel and team for bringing this special moment into our ministry family.
