Home Bible Studies



Last night we all went to Rueben and Xiomara's house for a home Bible Study. (Sorry that the only pictures I can find of them at this time are of their baptism) We gave them both a ride from Tegucigalpa as well as some other church members who work in Teguc as well. We had to take two trucks as we had quite a few people travelling with us. We were a little concerned when we got to the house and the other truck with Rueben and Xiomara was not there. Thankfully we were able to call their cell phone and find out that they had stopped by the church to pick up more chairs.

Being that this was the first home Bible Study, we weren't sure how many people would show up. We were so pleased when we had 20 people attend. Bro. Armando preached and it was a great service. We are planning on having our service at Bro. Armando's house next week and Bro. Rueben will be preaching (his first time ever). Jason gives them a pretty detailed outline to study and then they preach it. These Bible Study times gives these men opportunity to have a little bit of leadership in the way their church is going. They asked if we could start them and we told them that we would help them for a couple of months and then they would have to run it themselves. Praise the Lord for men that are making huge strides forward for God.

Please pray for our family. We have been sick more often than healed. This morning I woke up with body aches, a fever, and nausea. I feel different than when I had the colon infection so I think that this time it is just the flu. We have another group coming in on the 31st of this month and staying for two weeks. Please pray that we would be all healed by then.

Jason left to take the Jacobos to San Pedro. They fly out tomorrow at 7:40 am. Once they get through customs then Jason will take off to drive back to Teguc. I loved having them here. They were here three weeks and while they may have gotten tired of us we greatly enjoyed our time with them. The kids are enjoying not having a baby around all the time. Tonight they played with their train tracks, Lego's, play dough, and all of the other things that were put up when Isabelle was here. Isabelle's problem was that she loved to play with whatever the boys were playing with much to their frustration. :-)

Please pray for the Jacobo family as they return back to the states and deputation as they are looking at going to language school the first of May. Please pray with them that they will reach that goal.
