July 12, 2008 New Churches




What about the churches???

Here are pictures of our three newest churches.

We added three new churches while we were in Honduras and are in the process of starting another new church in the next couple of weeks. We are trying to allow God to direct and us to go where He is guiding. With all three of the new churches God brought people to us who were wanting a church in their area and we followed where God was leading. Similar to the principle Jesus gave the 72 when He sent them out in Luke 10:1-7. He told them to look for a man of peace. A man willing to open his house to them. A man God had already prepared to receive them and allow them to use his house a hub for the gospel in that area. One of the churches is at a person's house, another is on property very close to the person's house, and the third is located next to the person's pulperia (that would be similar to a very, very small quick-stop without the gas).

The new church we are hoping to begin soon is located on property in a new colonia (small community) that has set aside some property for a church. Two men from the area came to visit Miguel (the president of the pastors) asking if we would come and start a church in their community since they have no church.

In Tegucagalpa (the capital of Honduras) we actually own a building but there is no church meeting there. The churches in the area are getting together in an effort to see about beginning a church at this location also.
