Welcome First Baptist Church Raleigh


This group of gentlemen for many years have come to Honduras.  In the last couple of years they have added a young lady named Suzanne to their team and Dennis brought his granddaughter, Alexia, this year.  This team gathered the first night around the porch of the North American dorm where team leader Steve challenged them all this week to get out of their comfort zone because they have a challenge this year like none other before.  This team went up into Tapitoca, into the mountains where the terrain was not great and the roads sometimes were not roads.  But this was not their challenge, their challenge was they were going where there was not a church.  Where the home owner was the only Christian.  He challenged them to be a witness for Jesus Christ just like in the early church, the first church.  There were eleven men and then at the end of the day 5,000 came to Christ.  There was new believers daily in the first church. Steve shared they had the chance to bring the early church up into Tapitoca this week.
After Steve shared out of Acts 2:42 a new team member Beau led them into two beautiful hymns, Amazing Grace and Open the Eyes of My Heart Lord.  Beau brought fifteen plus hymns where after God moments and devotional nightly the team was led by the accompaniment of Beau and his guitar as they praised the Lord in song. Each evening the team met on the porch for God moments and devotions along with Beau leading the music.  Beau went to a lot of work preparing the music for this week and it was very evident each evening as he prepared us to praise and worship our Lord in song.
