ex-presidents and curfews

Hey everyone...

Please be praying for Honduras. Things are heating up there as the ex-president has taken up residence in the capital in the Brazilian embassy. I have been keeping up with the stories through the news, but also through the blogs of the missionaries on my team who are there. Check out www.pettengillmissionaries.org for more insight into the situation. Today they have been able to get out after 3-4 days of mandatory curfews. They are back on track doing ministry work with the medical clinic today. They are also glad to be able to check in with those out in Armenia Bonito where they do most of their work.

We see that the effect of sin in the world goes a lot further than just being personal. It effects families, cities, governments, and nations. And yet we serve a God who is at work redeeming people, cultures, and even nations to Himself. Pray that through this time of instability in their government, people might see that they need to put their hope in something bigger than their goverment and their nation and that they would trust in Jesus. And pray for stability to be renewed in this country.
