God is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
On Monday February 21 the foundation for the orphanage began to be put in place. Four local Honduran men are currently working on digging the footers and pouring what will serve as the foundation of this home for the forgotten. We have been blessed to be able to see God bring this project along much faster than our dreams could have imagined.
We will be taking two teams down in April for our largest group to date. There will be 32 people in Honduras from April 10-18 spreading the love of Christ as the speak, serve, and work. Please be in prayer for this team as we are all preparing to do Gods will. There will be many different opportunities for the people of Honduras to hear the Gospel on this trip. Please be in prayer for the many aspects of this work/ministry trip. The morning will consist of work on the property, mixing concrete, laying block, bending rebar, etc. We will spend time in the afternoon's going door to door and sharing food and the gospel with our new neighbors. We will most likely spend some time with some of the five local churches we have partnered with in the past as well. There will also be 3 Gospel presentations at local schools, this will be led by the seniors of Trinity of Fairview.
We are excited about what God is doing in this ministry and know He will provide for His will to be accomplished. If God is speaking to you about helping with this ministry please follow His call. The foundation is one of the more expensive portions of this project. To keep things going with material and workers we need to be able to send around $1,300 per week for the next 25 weeks. AS you can see money will be used quickly during this process. Please consider a donation either through PayPal or by attending an upcoming event.
We are currently registering runners or walkers for the upcoming 5k and 1 mile fun run/walk. You can enter this event online by clicking on the race link. Just think each $25 5k entry fee will pay for the labor of the mason for a day as well as buy about 10 blocks, even if you cannot run come walk and help these beautiful people. There is also a $10 fun run/walk, this is a great opportunity to teach your children or youth about the need to help those in need. Each walk registration will pay for a bag of concrete and 6 blocks. Please invite your Sunday School, BoyScout troop, Girl Scout troop, work team, to come and do this as a team. There will also be a spaghettii supper Saturday March 6th @ Barnardsville Baptist from 6-8pm. This will be a love offering for this project and take out will be availabale.
We hope to see you at an upcoming event. God bless.
