This is a message straight from our team in Honduras. The progress in work that they are doing is amazing. For bible school they had a huge turnout. God is really working with this group. It looks like he is showing out!! Lets pray for continued blessing on the group and the people they are witnessing too!! Good Morning, Staying positive is a must today and counting our blessings is so important to keep going because yesterday was extremely challenging for all of us.

Well just to update everyone for the mission team I will be blogging again!!!!!! I know some of you are excited others prolly not so much, but anyway here we go. We started out this beautiful day at 1230AM, but apparently we need to water West clock cause he was late. I think he must have forgotten what we did to poor Connie Wheat in Texas. (WE WILL LEAVE YOU). He was only 3 minutes late, the one who was really LATE was James Harmon. No shocker there. Everyone finally showed up we got everything loaded and ready for blast off. Since I was the captian of the bus and they were gonna be on planes the rest of the day I felt the sudden urge to give them a few instructions to prepare them for ... read more

I know that most of the time I start this blog out by talking about something that happened during the night or some other sort of funny, but tonight I want to start with something more. A blessing! This morning we went to our first locations for bible school. In case you do know we are working 6 locations with 3 different teams. We have a morning and an afternoon service.

Just one soul saved would make the trip well worth. We got back to Mission Arlington for lunch and got to hear the story first hand. Apparently this child had been coming to the ... read more

Well let me do some catching up on some stuff that I intentionally left out because it was some of my uh-ohs. I have been posting stuff that other people had done but I got reprimanded by some of my fellow adults and was asked to put these in this blog. Saturday night we took the kids to eat at Ci-Ci's pizza, well on the way were are going down this road and they do not have any warning about a hole or dip in the road and we were traveling down this said road with out any warning and we hit this grand canyon. well it did not bother me or the people on like the first few rows but when the back of the bus hit it, it sent the youth on the back ... read more

WOW! What a day!! Left the church a little before 630 this morning.... Got to Jackson and the bus driver, me, and the co-pilot, West Garner, was to busy talking and missed the exit to go to Vicksburg.. We did notice it at the same exact time, and quickly got back on track.. The youth have done great on the the trip we only stopped twice for bathroom breaks, and once to eat.. We did stop at the Texas welcome center and take pictures infront of the Lone Star State. We got into a traffic jam right before Dallas. We finally got to Mission Arlington and got our room assignments.. I was a little nervous after hearing from Fro and Tyler about there last experience here. We are staying at a church and it looks like ... read more
