As we prepare to leave…

We drive to St. Louis tonight around 10, stay at First Baptist Ferguson, and then fly to Miami at 6am. From Miami, we fly to Tegucigalpa, and should arrive at 11am (EST), then drive to Choluteca from there.

As usual, our internet access will be hit or miss. Hopefully I’ll get to post at least once from Cholu.

What you can pray for while we are there:

• Health & safety of team members (especially in regards to the heat)
• Humility and flexibility for our team members
• We will make the most of every opportunity we are presented with
• Our team will demonstrate brotherly love toward each other and our hosts
• We will build a foundation for future work
• Seeds of faith will be planted, some will be watered, and others harvested
• We will be an encouragement to our brothers at the Choluteca church, and that we will receive encouragement from them as well

Specific prayer requests:

• Health is a particular concern since temperatures in Cholu have been breaking 100F regularly the last couple weeks.
• Team unity & fellowship, including our Honduran team members that we’ll meet when we get there
• This year, we decided to hire 10 local workers to assist us with construction work. We’re hoping to learn some skills from them, and hoping to share a little Christian love with them as well.
• Pray that we will be as light a burden as possible to the church. We’re challenging ourselves to out-serve & out-encourage them!
• We have some big dreams and ideas for the future, please pray that God will guide us and give us discernment about if/how to proceed.
• Pray for the cultivation of our relationships with our brothers & sisters in Choluteca. Many of our returning team members have begun to build strong relationships, and 10 days never feels long enough.
• Pray that we will be the eyes and ears of The Rock in Honduras, and that when we return, we can be the voice of Choluteca to our church and to the campus.
• May our hearts be broken by the things that break the heart of God…
