Dear Fellow Brethren in Christ Jesus Our Most Blessed Lord,
January has been a month of change and harvest. Satan has been busy as usual trying to destroy the work here in Honduras, but God continues to be faithful in not only opening doors, but also giving some fruit along the way. And I’m finding that constant persistence, faithfulness, and patience are what’s needed in the ministry for God to bless and work through me!
The first of this month, I was notified that the Missionary who left me in charge of the services in the Baptist Camp behind my house will not be coming back to Honduras for another three months minimum, and that his “Mission” told him to close down services there, and that I was not allowed to use the facilities for preaching or teaching. This left a bad taste in my mouth, so I did the only thing I knew to do, which was invite the people to come to my house for services each Wednesday and Sunday at five in the evening. Although we lost a few, many are still coming, and I’m enjoying teaching them the word of God.
On Saturday’s, we started visitation in our neighborhood at three in the afternoon. While visiting on the 17th, I had the privilege of leading thirteen-year-old Carlos to the Lord. The 21st, I had an even greater blessing when I led David Martinez to the Lord and a young lady named Melissa after Wednesday night services.
Another Missionary here in Honduras named Robert Baker, sent me a young preacher boy for two weeks named Alexis Flores, that he’s training for the ministry, with the commission of “teach him all you can!” This I did as I taught him “The Seven Mysteries,” “The Seven Baptisms,” “The Seven Judgments,” “The Seven Resurrections,” and much more.
While he was here, we did some visiting in Quebrada de Lajas, and he led a 54-year-old man to Jesus Christ! What a blessing that was, and a thrill for us both.
Speaking of Quebrada de Lajas, we lost the building we were meeting in, as the landlord is a very Catholic man, and didn’t like to see that our services were going so well, as more people were coming. He threatened us and told us that we could no longer have services there. But God was good in allowing us a lost man named “Adrian” to lend us his house to continue services. (Please pray for him that he would trust Jesus Christ as his Saviour).
Towards the end of January, God provided a vacant house for us to meet in at a very small price of 200 lempiras a month (about ten American dollars). In our first service in our new building, Blanca (Jose Martir’s wife), trusted the Blood of Jesus Christ to save her never dying soul! What a blessing that was!
On top of preaching four times a week, I also am busy teaching. Bible Institute started up again the 30th of January, and I’ll be teaching 1st and 2nd Thessalonians verse by verse for thirteen consecutive weeks. Also, I have been asked by another Missionary here to give Greek classes every Wednesday morning. We started on the 21st, and have been going ever since. I have five students who are eager to learn.
Thus, January was a great month. God blessed time and again, and I believe it’s all because of your continued prayers. May God bless you for helping the ministry in Honduras!
