Dear praying friends,
As you all know, history moves from East to West. And, that is exactly how my deputation has gone. I started with many meetings in the East Coast, and have moved slowly to the West. My support has been at a little over 80% now for a month or so, and I am hoping it will rise soon. I would sure love to be able to go to Honduras this summer, so please pray with me that this would be a reality, as I travel all over the Western states looking for support.
The beginning of March was spent at home on the telephone setting up more meetings, as well as doing some work on the house and our bulkhead that is slowly rotting away. I’ve enjoyed being home, and doing what I enjoy most - working! It helps me to work off those extra pounds put on by deputation. I also spent some time in my yard planting various plants, and trees, as well as cutting down a few old ones. Work to some is a four-letter word, but to me, it’s something I enjoy, and even miss on deputation.
While at home, on the 2nd of March I went to a revival meeting in Pensacola, and on the way there, I met a man at a gas station who approached me, and began telling me his problems. He saw the Bible bumper stickers on the side of my car, and knew that I was a Christian, and thought I could help. He told me he was from California, and came to Pensacola for work, but couldn’t find any. He was broke, and had his luggage stolen along his way. When I met him, he had been in Florida for three days with no place to stay or food to eat. He said he had been sleeping out in front of the bus station, and knocking on doors during the day to see if he could do some odds and ends jobs. He said that all he wanted to do was earn enough money for a bus ticket to go home.
So, to test his sincerity, I invited him to church with me that evening, and he came. Then, afterwards we had a cup of coffee, and talked. He said that he was saved, and realized that he had been missing too much church, and thought God must have been doing this to him, to show him he needed to get back in church! He had a good testimony, but was just down and out. So, I bought him a bus ticket home, and sent him on his way with a little money for food. I also gave him some tracts to give out, and several Christian books to read on his way. He was very appreciative. I counted it a privilege to help him, as this is what a Christian should do.
In March I began work on my Residence Visa, as I began collecting all the necessary papers to send into the Honduras government. I’ll send the paperwork off in the end of April after I get a physical from a doctor. Then, I’ll have to wait for the papers to come through in order to go to Honduras. I don’t know how long it will take, so please pray with me that they will go through quickly, and there will be no problems. I have put the requirements on the back of this letter that the Honduras Consulate requires so you will know what is needed in order to establish residence in Honduras.
Also, in March I’ve been busy setting up a website. I have much information on it as well as several commentaries and books I have written. Also, there’s a book on it that I wrote about the Spanish Bible that I ask you all to check out. If you are interested, the address to the site is www.robertbreaker.com/honduras/honduras.htm [THE SITE NO LONGER IN SERVICE. My website now is www.rrb3.com]
Well, that’s all for now. God bless you all, and may you continue steadfast in the faith!
Thanks again for all your prayers and support.
Because He shed His blood for me,

General Requirements To Obtain a Honduran Residence
Application for residence visa must be made at a Honduran Embassy or Consulate outside of the country. The following documents are required:
1. A medical certificate of good health (from a US Doctor).
2. A certificate of good conduct from police authorities in prior places of residence
3. A sworn statement that the applicant does not support doctrines which are contrary to those espoused by a Democratic country
4. A valid passport
5. Two photographs
6. A certificate of marriage (if applicable)
7. Birth certificate (if US or other citizenship)
8. A letter from the employing business or agency if applicant intends to work in Honduras; a letter from the appropriate institutions if applicant intends to study in Honduras
9. In case of a retired person or persons who do not intend to work in Honduras, certified statements that reflect income from institutions outside of Honduras, from children residing outside of Honduras, or from any other source located outside of Honduras
The price to process this Residence visa application is $570 dollars U.S.
The ministry of government and Justice in Honduras has jurisdiction over the granting of permanent resident status in Honduras, the services of a local attorney are usually required, as well as services of local attorney to obtaining such residence. Attorney’s fees run between $250.00 dollars to $1000.00 dollars, depending on the complexity of the case.
So, you see it will cost a pretty penny to get this Visa, but I know God will provide.
