What You've Been Missing: August and September

End of the Summer: 
Here's September's newsletter that sums up the last three teams and more!

Church of the Resurrection

Church of the Resurrection from Flagstaff, AZ put on 4 medical clinics in 4 days in 4 different communities.  They offered dental cleanings, fillings, extractions and wort removal.  What a blessing to the people of Honduras!

Sherer Presbyterian

Our final team put the finishing touches on the Kindergarten building in Las Delicias and a covered patio for church services in Barrio Eden.  One team member brought her harp and provided beautiful music during our mobile medical clinic.

Bethany Presbyterian

Bethany Presbyterian spent a week working alongside our team doing multiple construction projects, and playing with kids.  They had a blast every moment!

Prayer

  1. Pray for the Wellington Presbyterian Missions Conference.  Pray that God would be glorified in all the mission work being done through this church.
  2. Pray for love and wisdom for Adam and teammate Mike T. with our 5 Honduran pastors as their relationships and theological discussions deepen.
  3. We are continually reminded of the emotional and spiritual difficulties of serving cross-culturally.  Pray for health of our family and team in these areas.
  4. Pray that we would receive our Honduran Residency this month.
  5. Pray for the new coordinator of Mission To The World, Dr. Lloyd Kim as he assumes responsibility over our agency.

We thoroughly enjoyed the fellowship with families in this sweet church

Toddlers taking pictures! Doesn't get better than that!

Grandma and Grandpa Cain
We took advantage of us being on US soil and hung out with Grandma and Grandpa Cain.  They flew down to Florida and treated us to fun and great food in Orlando.
