The annual Honduran ICHA assembly took place on January 26th with many of the pastors and delagates present. We enjoyed listening to the reports as the pastors told how many messages they had preached, how many different adults and kids they had in their church in the past year, the number of converts, baptisms, weddings, [...]

We have better internet connection now so maybe I can “catch up.” We hit the ground running, so to speak. Tomorrow will be 2 weeks since our arrival and it has been so busy. But more about that later……………. First of all I wanted to post some pictures of our departure from Indiana. We had [...]
