We are so blessed to have this lovely and godly couple back with us this year for their third visit. Welcome Brad and Julie. The love of Jesus radiates off of both of them. Their excitement for one salvation is contagious. They enjoy the culture and the food and most of all the people. They are humble with their witness for Christ. They have had quiet the week with a lot of folks with lots of excuses why they do not need Jesus or they do not know where they are going to go when they die. But they came prepared with the right questions but they also were able and willing to learn from one of their friends from the church who went with them how to approach a person who is Catholic. So we learn from our Honduran brothers and sisters daily here and I am grateful to God they both were willing to receive guidance for the Honduran people. Thank you for sharing the love of Jesus with others and Julie for allowing God is use you this year to bring others to Christ. To God be the glory.
Welcome back for their third year Richard and Holly. Richard had the opportunity to share the gospel in church on Sunday. Holly was able to use the evangi-cube for the first time to bring someone to Christ. Her God moment which brought tears to my eyes with this ninety one year old man and his daughter who has cerebral palsy coming to Christ. Holly was sharing the plan of salvation with the elderly gentleman as the daughter sat on the couch listening. The ninety one year old man received Christ as his Lord and Savior. It is never to late to receive the sweetest gift of all Jesus. Well this story gets even better, Holly looked over at his daughter and ask her would she like to receive Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior. Holly said with all her might she prayed the sinner's prayer with her and it took all her being to do this but Holly waited ever so gently on each word to part her lips before going to the next word. They were in a very rural community today where there was so many more stories just like this one. This was probably the first time these children had ever seen North Americans. But what a great group to get to meet for the first time.
Richard learned how to make hammocks while sharing the gospel with a family in Orocuna. Also they had challenges as well with a very strong Catholic community but Richard shared the gospel of Jesus Christ with the help of his friend Meida and moved on and dusted off his feet as he left.
At the end of the day it does my heart good to see young couples coming to Honduras to share the love of Jesus Christ with these beautiful people. We are proud of both couples for coming here beside of us this week and what a joy they all four were to Mike and I.
