Coats Baptist Arrives with a Warm Greeting

The team arrives one day late to Tegus airport.  They actually went the night before to spend the night in the RDU airport preparing for the ice storm coming.  They were on the second flight out but were about two hours leaving Raleigh which caused them to miss the only flight out of Atlanta to Tegus.  So they spent the night in Atlanta and started their journey a day later.  They came prepared to build a home and opted not to go shopping on their free day.  They spent five days glorifying the Lord through the construction of 800 blocks.  To God be the glory for this team and their willingness to do what God called them to do, build a home.
 
The team arrives greeting and getting to know the family.  Pastor Carlos goes to investigate an opportunity on the construction site.  The structure is up against another structure within a few inches of each other.  Julio stands close by as he watches Pastor Carlos check out what may be ahead of him and the team.  Team leader gets to know our new translator, Santos and discusses with Maida the week ahead.  This team came with enthusiasm ready to serve wherever needed. 

 
The team gathers around and introduces each other and Julio thanked them for accepting the calling to come to Honduras and help build his home.  The team gathered together and prayed for the day ahead.  The team gathered each morning after this to start their day with giving it all to God through prayer.  They may have started a day late.  But God knew the plans He had for each of them this week.  They were obedient to the calling.
 
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11
