This was an end to a beautiful week. We gathered Medardo, Magdalema and Yelson in front of their home to bless this home in the name of Jesus. Pastor Larry led the dedication by opening up with prayer first and foremost. He led into our this home was built on a firm foundation with the cornerstones placed in each corner. As the week progressed the walls went up and the doors and windows and finally the roof was put into place. This home was made from the love of Jesus Christ by the team and all the Hondurans who came along beside the team this week to make this house into a home, a home you both have prayed for a very long time. Also Pastor Larry presented the Bible and the lock and key. He shared how as a family the Bible is your firm foundation and the lock and key are your protection from the evil that lurks around us daily. God's protection is in this home. Before praying over the home Pastor Larry asked the family if they had any words to share. This is when this home dedication took a huge turn. Medardo ask Pastor Carlos to pray over his rededication to Jesus Christ. Medardo shared how he had not been in church for quiet some time and now he was ready to serve the Lord alongside Magdalema and family. At this time he song a song for the team called "I leave the Past Behind". Amen y amen. At this time Pastor Carlos came up to the home and ask was there any one else who wanted to receive Christ as their Lord and Savior. Today is the day of salvation. Here is the altar, is it calling you, shares Pastor Carlos. Isamel came forward to rededicate his life as well. Wow, what a home dedication this was for all of us. This is why we come to Honduras from North America for moments such as these. Pastor Larry prayed over the home and Medardo opened the front door to his home and they invited everyone in for a visit. Magdalema went inside her new home and burst into tears. Pastor Larry said what an emotional day this was for her. Medardo rededicated his life to the Lord and the Lord gave her a home she had been waiting for twelve years. Mike and I stayed outside the home for various reasons but the beauty of the music coming from inside this home warmed our hearts. God is so good and this team was obedient and came down to serve their Lord in such a mighty way this week. Monte de Horeb Ministries says thank you Hopewell Baptist Church for your commitment and obedience to our Lord and Savior. All God's people said AMEN!!!!
