Families Serving Together


John Scott has been coming to Honduras for seven years and he loves it even more each time he comes.  He puts his whole heart and soul into his efforts here in Honduras.  For years he has shared how he could not wait for his son Christian to come with him to Honduras.  So as this year's team started to form John Scott asked him was he going.  Well as you can see above Christian came to Honduras with his Dad.  John Scott's God moment this week was having his son, Christian working beside him serving their Lord.  John Scott sat by example because Christian was willing to do whatever he needed to do to help his team.  He was a very quick learner according to his teacher, Mr. Mike.  Mr. Mike shared how quickly he and his friend Mason caught on to laying the block.  But he even took it to another level.  If he saw a need he simply did it.  He asked how and got it done if he did not know what to do.  His beautiful smile radiated each and every morning as I made my way up to the multipurpose building.  He was always wearing a smile and ready to serve His Lord.  He got out of his comfort zone several times while in Honduras.  He did a devotional and led us in prayer several times.  He got up on the roof of the house and put it on with Pastor Carlos and Mr. Mike.  John Scott was one proud Dad this week and you and your lovely bride Rhonda have done a great job raising an amazing young man who is growing in the Lord daily.


Our two multiple returners to Honduras, Pastor Brian and his son Justin.  Justin was already here for about twenty eight days before his father and team arrived.  Justin has the same passion for Honduras as his Dad does.  He loves the food and the culture here as well.  But unlike his father he takes the Honduran culture to another level.  His thrity five days in Honduras he slept in a hammock and ate minimal meals daily.  He truly wanted to embrace the culture to another level.  He was so grateful when his church family arrived that day in the airport.  He was ready to see his family.  Pastor Brian has set a great example for Justin as Justin develops into who God wants him to be.  Justin wants to be a politician and he would be a very good one.  He will fight for what he believes in right to the end.  So Justin we pray God leads you where He wants you to go in this life.  Mr. Mike and I pray your experience in Honduras will assist you in the direction God will lead you.  We pray for you as you continue your journey in life.  You and your Dad are more like family than pastor and intern.


These two young ladies Anna Kate and Taylor are so special in so many different ways.  They came for their first time last year and we fell in love with them.  They come ready to serve with their whole being.  They are grounded in God's Word and live it out daily.  We thought Anna Kate was the older but found out differently.  They both are mature beyond their years.  They take the interest of others before themselves.  They are sisters and we, Mike and I never saw sibling rivalry the entire time they were here.  They work well together.  Taylor did the sermon at the home dedication where she brought the plan of salvation for those who did not know Jesus Christ.  Both are quiet but with sweet and gentle spirits.  We are so grateful you two beautiful ladies came back to Honduras to serve with us once again.
