We are grateful for all of our friends and family for the continued support, messages, gifts, and check ins. We are glad to be in La Ceiba full time again and looking forward to what is ahead.

We have 6 missions trips planned this year with 3 to La Ceiba, 1 to San Lorenzo, 1 to Spain, and 1 to Cuba.

Everyday here is wrought with potential for life changing ministry and opportunities to share love with others in both tangible and spiritual ways.

Jorge and Janeth were very instrumental in us getting a great place to rent and having it set up before we arrived

Even while helping us get internet installed and water connected our friend, and National Director, Jorge was able to share his testimony and encourage them. Later that afternoon Jorge invited the Tigo guys for lunch and they prayed together to accept Jesus.

God has some amazing ways of connecting us to those in need if we pay attention and make intentional decisions to follow through.

Our Co Founders and family (Travis, Gina, and Noah) were here with us to help us get our house feeling like a home and they were a great blessing. They helped us set up furniture and paint as well as many other projects to make sure we are set up.

We could not have made this move happen without many of you helping us and making our ministry here a priority. Thank You!


We believe local community leaders hold the key to unlocking exponential positive change and growth for La Ceiba. This community is a shining example of what can happen when we all choose to work together and focus on sustainable solutions.

We have been blessed to meet and work with many great community leaders over the years and we look forward to expanding our programs and completing new projects this year.

One program we are continuing to focus on is Launching a School of Missions in Honduras. This will help us Prepare & Equip Latin American Students to Reach the World through Missions.

We also have several mission trips planned this year where you can jump in and be a part of the success in La Ceiba. We will visit the Girls Home at La Masica, continue to work with the local Fire and Police Departments, Host our annual Mission Conference, as well as many practical projects such as, concrete floors, clean water projects, and more.

If you, your church or work group, or your family would like to join us you are welcome to visit the Connect Global Trips Page and find out more!

We are Currently recruiting high caliber Church leaders, Educators, Medical Professionals and Business leaders to come volunteer alongside us in this initiative. We need you to serve by sharing your skills and talents with the Community.

Bible Passages to Ease your Anxiety

Bible Passages to Ease your Anxiety

The source of your anxiety, whatever it is, matters dearly to God. You can leave it to Him. If you need evidence of that, look up and around you. God cares for the birds of the air—the robins, the hummingbirds, even the vultures. Humans have greater value to Him than birds do, so how much more will He pay attention to your needs?

Make Someone Feel Special

Make Someone Feel Special

I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
— –Maya Angelou

The Missionary Heart

The Missionary Heart

 “The missionary heart: Care more than some think is wise. Risk more than some think is safe. Dream more than some think is practical. Expect more than some think is possible. I was called not to comfort or success but to obedience….There is no joy outside of knowing Jesus and serving him.”

 

—Karen Watson, martyr, March 15, 2004

Beauty in Honduras

Beauty in Honduras

"To bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair." 

◄ Isaiah 61:3 ►

Our family has now been in Honduras for 12 days. We have been getting settled in and becoming acquainted with our new town and with some really great new families. 

Each time we have traveled to Honduras over the past 10 years we have been in awe of the natural beauty as well as the beauty in the love and the grace that surely abounds here. 

We have chosen to focus on the beauty and not the ashes. There are families here serving others, there are business leaders improving the community, and there are churches concerned with outreach and not just warehousing believers. 

Yes, there is still crime and hurt and disease but there is also peace, and love and good people willing to do what it takes for light to defeat darkness. 

Our intention here is to highlight the good going on in this community and embrace solutions rather than dwell on the problems. 

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we integrate with this community and pray that we would be successful in our pursuit to exchange beauty for ashes.
