Container for Guyana

I received an email today that the container for Missionary Harold Suggs, headed to Guyana,  will arrive at the  warehouse next Thursday, Dec 6 at 9:00 a.m.  Glory!   We will have two (2) hours to load the container.  They wanted to bring the container this coming Thursday but I still have all of their computers to go through.  So it is going to be a busy week and a half getting everything ready.  Harold is getting 50 computers, 75 school desks, 6 TVs, 12 pallets of text books, and a few other things.  It will take the entire 40 foot container to fit it all.  Pray for Vance and me.

Honduras Trip

I had a fantastic time in Honduras with missionaries Bill and Barbara Strickland.  I preached Saturday night at 5:00 p.m., Sunday Morning at 7:00 a.m., 9:00 a.m., and 11:00 a.m.  The response of the people was wonderful.  They loved singing "O Mwari Wakanaka." 

 

The highlight of the trip was having over 50 young people respond to the altar call giving their lives to be missionaries.  God is really moving in Honduras.  The church was alive!  I enjoyed the singing, the dancing, the excitement, and the move of the Spirit.  The 11:00 service was aired on national TV at 10:00 Monday morning and 7:00 p.m. Monday night.  You missed it didn't you?

 

Look for all the details in the Honduras Journal when I complete it.

 

Let me mention two things:

 

1.  Bill Strickland had his computer stolen a month ago and emailed me to ask if he had Dell send a new computer to my address, could I bring it to Honduras for him.  When I got to Honduras, someone had broken into my luggage and stolen the new computer.  I need to replace it because the airlines claim no responsibilities for electronic equipment.  If you would like to help, I need $1,800 to replace the laptop.

 

2.  The Church has an English-medium school and desire Teachers from the States.  They offer a pretty good package.  If you are interested or know of someone who would love to teach in Honduras, contact Bill Strickland.  His email is bill.strickland@agmd.org.

 

I am thrilled to be back home.

A Great Week

Last week was a great week.  On Tuesday we picked up a truck load of goodies from the District One DOT in Bartow.  It was a good contact and the lady in charge wants to put me in contact with other people.  On Thursday we picked up a load from The Turnpike DOT in West Palm Beach.  This was another first.  The DOT has been so nice.  It is a delight working together with them.

 

This week I have been sorting through all the goodies, organizing them, and putting them on pallets

 

I will be headed to Honduras in two days.  I will be preaching the Missions Convention for Missionaries Bill and Barbara Strickland in Tegucigalpa.  I am really looking forward to this.  Please hold me up in prayer.

Alabama Trip

I have just returned from a week in Alabama, preaching two times on Sunday, plus attending the District Council on Tuesday and the Sectional Council on Thursday.  It was great to see a lot of old friends and to be able to spend a little time with Mom and Dad in Tuscaloosa.

 

One of the pastors in Alabama, Chad Payne, had emailed me that he had some computers for me to pick up when I came up for the sectional council.  At the council, I was given a couple of minutes to share about what God is doing with Investing in Futures.  After the meeting, Jason Loper, missionary to Nepal, asked if he could have some computers for Nepal.  I simply walked across the room and spoke with Chad Payne and instead of bringing those computers back to Florida, Jason is picking them up from Pastor Payne.  Now that is networking at its best! 

 

Tuesday I will be going to the DOT in Bartow, Florida to pick up our first load from them, and on Thursday to the DOT in West Palm Beach to pick up our first load from them as well.  Glory!  I have so many requests from missionaries for computers, but God always seems to provide.

 

We will also be loading and shipping a 40 foot container on Thursday to The Gambia, Africa.  This will be the second container to The Gambia.
