"Go therefore and make disciples...."

Last week was such a blast! Jared arrived, then my mom and Kris. Prepared and ready to preach, sing, play guitar and show these kids love from The United States!



My kids welcomed them with a nice sign complete with glitter and pictures they asked me for. They were so cute! We showed my brother the local cathedral and had our fair share of native Honduras food. "Con frijoles." =)

Kris did Week of Prayer for the high school kids, then he did evangelistic meetings at night. He was pretty tired by the end, but I can tell you he blessed so many people, including the the missionaries!
Jared did worship for the staff a few time in the EARLY morning as well as did music for the week of prayer, helped with song service at night and did beautiful special musics for the meetings at night.
My kids absolutely LOVED having my family and Jared there. Jared came to class with me almost every class and they loved having him help them with their math problems and such.
My mom brought my kids pipe cleaners, doesn't seem too cool, but you'd be surprised!!!!
The first night of the meetings Jared and I sang a special music together and then the other nights he did them by himself. We didn't have a mic stand so I got to be the human stand! I stood on the step so that I could reach him! HAHAHA!
Jared, my mom and I went to the girls orphanage one day and got to help the girls make pastries. I was SUPER BAD AT IT! But It was really fun!
Kris did really well speaking. What an amazing TREAT it was to hear sermons in English. It's like Christmas! They brought bus fulls of people every night and the people seemed very touched. At the end we had quite a handful of people baptized, a lot of them children. It was really cool to see the changes take place in people. I'm so excited because last year i went on a mission trip to Guatemala, and when you go on short term mission trips, you are certainly blessed by what you see, but then you leave, and don't get to see the people afterwords, if they continue to come to church, to feel loved, or if it just fades a little bit once you leave.
But this time, I am still here for almost 3 more months, I am still here able to see the growth these people will have in their new found love and trust in Jesus. PRAISE GOD!
So that was last week in a nutshell! =) I sit here, thanking God for his impact, his love, his ability to see us through, my brothers gift of preaching, Jared's gift of music, and for giving us love that we can share with others!
This week my mom, my brother, and I are going to be relaxing, enjoying the beach and the sun! Stay tuned! =)
