Over the last 2 weeks, we have had our time divided between 4 cities. Many past friendships have been strengthened and new friendships have been made.

| Tegucigalpa |
In Tegucigalpa, we were blessed to stay with the Coello family who
have been friends of my aunt and uncle for over 25 years. Lazaro Coello
was an amazing driver and guide in a city that is so packed you can
hardly breath. We went to the capital to apply for a Honduran marriage
certificate so that I will be able to receive my residency when the Lord
calls us here permanently. Although we went for just paper work, we
were blessed with deep relationships with the Coello family.

| Reminder of God's promises |
In Siguatepeque,
we attended a missionary conference where more relationships developed
and a wealth of knowledge was gained. It was so amazing to hear of the
work that God is doing all over the country of Honduras. Our speaker was extraordinary, and we especially were drawn to one image he pointed out to us.
He compared God to a surgeon that had a lot of work to do on a
patient. As this surgeon began his work, he selected a tool. The tool he
chose was sharp, clean, and available. No other tool would work. We must be those things for God
to utilize us in His work in Honduras.

| Heart to Heart preschool class focused on a video |
In Puerto Cortes and Tegucigalpita,
we have been working with Worldwide Heart to Heart Ministries. Last
night, we stayed out at the children's home in Tegucigalpita to spend
more time with the children that we love so much, but most of our time
has been in Puerto Cortes where the church and school are located. It
has brought us so much joy to maintain so many of the relationships that
were started long ago- 10 years ago for Marvin and 5 years ago for me.
Continue to pray with us as we seek direction over the next few weeks. God led us to be here for five months, and we look forward to him continuing to light our path.
"
Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws." -Psalm 119:105-106
