Well...
I guess life is going good. Slow but good. Just been back from vacation for about 2 weeks now. It was a nice time being off from work and the same ole' same ole' life for 3 weeks. Honduras was great the weather was perfect!! No humidity! The people we spent time with were very nice. There was Abby, Brenda and Lucio...very nice...and fun!!! C= There was one night after church on the way home when there were 4 of us riding with Lucio and he says, "I'm kinda in the mood for a Wendy's frosty! What about you guys?" and so we said, "Yum!" and on to Wendy's we went, with out the rest of our group. It was really funny.
While we were there we got to witness to a lot of people. It was a bit odd though b/c when you witness to them you present the gospel and you stumble through it b/c they are so willing to listen. It feels like you forget things and wait, is presenting the gospel to these people really this simple?
A lot of the people want you to pray so they can repeat after you b/c they don't know what to say when they pray. -making things awkward b/c you ask yourself, did they really get saved? But we pray that each one of them were sincere in the repeating of the prayer...as if to say we pray that what they said they truly believed in their hearts.
Another adventure to our trip was getting to paint a church which was started about 5 years ago after a different group from our church went down there on a mission trip. I must mention that the majority of the church consists of children, the rest a few mothers and maybe a father. Prayerfully this generation will be strong Christians for the Lord and have a great desire to do the work of God. They need that there!
One other thing about the trip, -the great joy of spending time with other Christians. Not just other Christians but friends, brothers and sisters in Christ. It is always a blessing to spend time with friends but spending time doing what God desires, with friends...oh what a blast!!!
So much to say but so little time...

Honduras
This summer I have the opportunity to take the Gospel to Honduras with a group of teens from my church. We are so excited! Our trip is only 3 months away. The exact dates are June 21-28.
Honduras is a very poor country in Central America.
You might ask, “What will you be doing in Honduras?” Let me answer that.
1. Many people in Honduras don’t have electricity. We will be going hut to hut in the mountains with a solar powered radio that’s programmed to one station: a good Christian station. We will give a radio to each family, but we will also explain and share the Gospel as THE most important Gift…which is salvation only through Jesus Christ. Since it is hard to reach people in this remote area, the Bible teaching and Gospel songs on the radio will be very important to help them grow in the Lord.
2. Most mornings we will help in several feeding kitchens (some birthed by our own church in prior trips) by preparing and serving meals to hundreds of children that would otherwise go hungry.
3. Another exciting endeavor is visiting and helping in the orphanages.
The trip to Honduras will cost $1400; this includes my airfare, food, transportation, translators and lodging. We have done several fund raisers and have been working hard to earn this money. We do not want this money just given to us by our parents or provided for us by our church. I was hoping you would like to have a part in sending me to share the gospel with the people in Honduras. You can be a blessing to these people right from where you are! Besides that, it would be a great blessing to me. Any donations you might give are tax deductible when made payable to Bible Baptist Church of Deland. *Please put my name in the memo line.
Please do not feel obligated to give anything. But know that whatever you might give will be used to the glory of God and to the saving of souls.
Please pray about what God can do in the lives of each of us. The desire of my heart is for people to get saved, hearts to be changed, and God to personally change my life to honor and glory the Lord.
Thank You!
Love in Christ,
Esther
