HA! I got you! We kinda have a plan but we don't. In Honduras, we are told to BE FLEXIBLE! But at least we know where our team is going for our ministry and we have our children and women's ministry lessons planned! We are thinking we will reach at least 200 kids that week! Holy cow. That's a lot of kids.
I am so excited to go back to Mescalillo! This is where one of our first medical clinics were at, we helped build their first evangelical church and they just had their first wedding there this year! ANNNND....This is where we all met Ruben! He was the inspiration in getting the Ruben Rehabilitation House in Gracias started. And he lives there right now, doing so good. I am excited to see him once again. I have seen a lot of God's hand on this small town that is doing BIG things!
So, I need to start packing and looking at what to bring. The weather will be different there this time of year. We are used to seeing the VERY HOT weather, and in July it is rainy and cool. I need to find a rain jacket. And of course, you know I will be packing a medical bag ( a doctor bag for nurses!) a just in case, LOL. You just never know what will happen with our team...falling off ladders, cut hands, medical emergencies!
And I need to start getting my muscles built up because I may be riding in the back of the trucks on our trips! We will have 2 trucks for 17 people, this means 7 of us will have to ride in the back.
It is an adventure:
1. trying not to fall out!
2. you can't sit....to many bumps and holes in the road causes too many bruises on your behind!
3. standing is the best option but then there is the dust from the road, and now it will be raining at times so the rain pelting us in our face!
4. we will look like bandits with our face coverings.
So I look forward to this new adventure, to learn new things, experience new things, experience God move in me and our team and seeing Him in the people we touch.
Pray for our team, for safety, health, our words and actions, and for God to move in the LaCampa area.
Our team always has a verse for each trip. This year it is 2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here!"
Bendiciones,
A
