Welcome! Here you will find all of my prayer letters written ever since I started the ministry as a Missionary to Honduras, and then as I now am as a Missionary to the Spanish-Speaking People of the Americas. We hope to update this with our current prayer letter that we send out every two months.

May 2001

Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,

            In the month of May, I have travelled to meetings out west in many different states, including Montana, Washington, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming.  After this, I can now say  that I have been to 48 of the 50 states in America in my lifetime!  I can hardly believe it.  But, it’s been a lot of fun.  America is a beautiful country, and I’ve enjoyed seeing it. 
            In my travels, I’ve seen many different things, such as:  the Statue of Liberty, Mount Rushmore, the Grand Coulee Dam, the Washington Monument, the White House, and much more.  But, none of these things moved me.  What really impressed me, and continues to do so, is the vast beauty of God’s creation.  I’ve seen the jagged egdes of the Grand Teton Mountains, the colorful, and lush flowery cliffs of the California coast, and the pastel colors of the sunset as it sets on the Pacific ocean.  I’ve seen the beauty of Yellowstone, and the great size of the giant Redwood trees.  I’ve seen New England in the Fall, and the breathtaking colors of the leaves.  I’ve seen the vast territory of the Grand Canyon, and, so much more.  And I stand in awe knowing that my God made all of that, and yet he still cares about a little nobody like me!  What an awesome God we serve!
            Not only did I travel a lot in May, but I also was quite busy with a great deal of paperwork.  I spent much time and energy getting together the needed papers to send to the Honduras Consulate for my Residence Visa.  After much effort, I finally finished, and sent the Papers off the second week of May!  Not only that, I was able to find a lawyer in Honduras who will take care of things on that end, and process the paperwork for me.  I’m happy to have that load off my my mind.  Now, I can focus on my last couple of meetings in the next two months and try to gain the last 5 - 10% of my support.
            As before mentioned, May was taken up with much work, and travel.  But, I also had to endure it with some pain and a little trouble.  In Oklahoma, I had to have a very painful ingrown toenail removed that had been hurting for some months.  With so much travel, I didn’t have much time to go to a doctor.  Nor did I want to have it done if I could help it, because it usually costs so much to have it removed.  But, in Oklahoma, my Mom (a nurse) scheduled a meeting with a doctor friend of hers, so that I could get a physical for my Honduras paperwork.  As he was examining me, I told him about my toe and how much it hurt.  He said he’d be happy to take it out.  And after he finished, he only charged me 10 dollars for everything!  I couldn’t believe it!  He said he wanted to help my ministry, so he didn’t charge me much.  What a blessing that was!
            Now, for the trouble.  As I was driving home to Florida from Tennessee, my car lost most of it’s power.  It would still run, but I couldn’t climb hills over 45 miles an hour.  It was very sluggish, and ran rough.  When I finally did get home, I took it to the shop, and they said the fuel pump was bad.   So, I had that fixed, as well as, the bearings greased, a new fuel filter installed, an induction cleaning, the fuel injector cleaned, and much more.  The cost was over $900 by the time they were through.  It was expensive, but it needed it, and it was worth it!  Now,  it drives like a dream! 
            Also in May, I attended the annual Beale Street Blast in Memphis, Tennessee.  Every year a bunch of street preachers get together, and go downtown to the local Jazz festival, to pass out tracts and preach on the street.  Last year we saw about 10 people saved.  And, this year it was nearly double that!  So, I praise God for those souls won.
            Finally, I want to tell you what happened in the end of May.  When I go out west for meetings, I usually stay at my father’s house in Casper, Wyoming, and work out of there.  And, I have my mail forwarded there as well.  Well, one day I got a letter from the guys in Honduras in that village of Colomoncagua that I told you about.  It’s the place where I led those 11 leaders of the village to the Lord, and where I’m planning to go back to when I return to Honduras.
            I was flabbergasted when I read their letter.  I haven’t had any contact with them since last August when I visited their village.  But in their letter, they said they hadn’t forgotten me, and they still wanted to learn the Bible.  And, then they even started quoting scriptures!  It was great to see that they had been reading their Bibles! 
            On the back of this letter I’ve translated the letter they sent me.  I hope you enjoy reading it.

Because He Died for my sins and yours,

Robert Ray Breaker III
Missionary to Honduras

Remembered and Unforgettable Brother in Christ
Robert Breaker,

How much of a pleasure it is to experiment in directing to you spiritually our friendly hand, and to beg you to accept in the unity of your family and brothers of congregation, my attentive greeting, cordial and respectful with my best wishes for health, harmony, and peace to reign unalterably in your home and your spiritual relationship with our Pope, “GOD!”

At the same time, I am grateful to inform you the following:

I am incapable of forgetting when you visited us with Brother Abraham White in the Municipal [Building] of Colomoncagua, with this spritual message, and achieving the sacred scriptures in the book of Mark chapter 16 verse 15, as He said, “Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel unto every creature.  In that we thank God!  And, hopefully we will meet again.

Robert, let me tell you that in our place there is a lot of need of evangelistic pastors, or how our Lord talks to us in His word in the book of Matthew chapter 9 verses 35 to 38 (especially verse 37),  and He said to his disciples, “The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few.”

For this, [I am] guided by the Holy Gost to get prepared in spiritual class lessons, [and] I took the determination to travel to you, for what I beg is that you send me a personal invitation from your congregation, church, or denomination to the following address:

Brother Jose Oscar Vijil Ramos
Santo Domingo, Colomoncagua, Intibuca
Rdo.  Profesor Adonai Perez

Also, this invitation must come with a fax for the Honduran embassy making evident the reason of the trip, place, hotel, expenses of the trip, if not everything [is] covered, I will put in part.

Brother Robert, you don’t know how much I wish to be very prepared in spiritual things and leave my occupation to perform the call when He said in the book of Mark chapter 1 verse 17, “And Jesus said unto them, come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.”

Brother, I say good bye, asking my father God to fulfill our wish, from you.

Respectfully,

Jose Oscar Vijil


I wrote him back, and told him I’d be coming in August to Honduras, and I’d be more than happy to teach him the Bible, and train him how to do the Lord’s work!
