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.

Why do birds choose to stay in the same place

Why do birds choose to stay in the same place

image.jpg
 
I always wonder why birds choose to stay in the same place when they can fly anywhere on the earth, then if ask myself the same question.
— Harun Yahya
 

 Sometimes we forget that we were created to fly.

We forget we are created to seek. We forget that we are created for a lot of things that we never get around to doing. 

Why is that?

It could be our comfort, our Fear, or even Lack of faith. Whatever the reason, we allow it to ground an incredible creature designed for so much more. 

Don't let your ability to fly be exchanged for something else.  

Stretch your wings and fly. 

 


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.

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?

Actively express thankfulness.

 

According to one study, couples that expressed gratitude in their interactions with each other resulted in increases in relationship connection and satisfaction the next day--both for the person expressing thankfulness and (no big surprise) for the person receiving it. (In fact, the authors of the study said gratitude was like a "booster shot" for relationships.)

Of course the same is true at work. Express gratitude for employee's hard work and you both feel better about yourselves.

Another easy method is to write down a few things you are grateful for every night. One study showed people who wrote down 5 things they were thankful for once a week were 25 percent happier after ten weeks; in effect they dramatically increased their happiness set-point.

Happy people focus on what they have, not on what they don't have. It's motivating to want more in your career, relationships, bank account, etc. but thinking about what you already have, and expressing gratitude for it, will make you a lot happier.

And will remind you that even if you still have huge dreams you have already accomplished a lot--and should feel genuinely proud.

A New Home for Maria

A New Home for Maria

Our friend and National Director Jorge Amador was introduced to Maria through our friends Pastor Allan and Pastor Miguel of CCI Church. CCI Church is very active in opening up their church to the community and offer aide to so many in need near La Ceiba, Honduras.
