Short term team

You can call two people a team.  I mean they are serving together, that makes them a team… right?  Whatever you want to call it, the weekend that I was leaving Honduras, two men to La Ceiba.  Dr. Greg and Pastor David came to serve for a week in Armenia doing medical clinics.  This is a huge blessing because Erin usually runs the clinics, but she and Mike are in the states for 6 months.  This means weekly clinics are out of the question, but having a doctor come and serve for a week is wonderful!

During the week that they were there, they got to see two members of the community come to know Christ personally.  This is what makes everything worth it.  I am so excited to know that we have two new brothers in Christ who are experiencing the hope and joy of knowing the Lord for the very first time!  Please pray for them to continue to grow in their knowledge of and hunger for the Lord.

Another really neat story is that Dr. Greg had been in Honduras some months ago and performed an ultrasound for a pregnant woman in the community who was worried about the health of her baby.  He was able to assure her at that time that everything was fine.  And this trip he was able to hold the newborn in his arms! 

We took this picture while everyone was there…  I love it.  It was so fun to be all together.  If only the Pettengills were there too…

In the picture are Dr. Greg and Pastor David, John and Kathy Clow with kids Abby, Bekah, Josiah, and Evan, Sean and Lindsay McCann with kids Lucy, Ellie, and Anna, me, and interns Jamie, Bethany, and Leo.
