The Great Commission

18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." (Matthew 28:18-20)

Honduras - June - 2011

The following pics were taken near Tegucigalpa Honduras (the capital), and further south near Mission Lazarus (near Choluteca). Our mission team helped contruct a wall around a Church of Christ supported medical clinic, nutrition site, worship location near the Pacific Ocean. We delivered food to some needy families with the aid of a local preacher there. We also helped build an addition at a local church building in Tegucigalpa. Our 3rd-5th graders in Fort Gibson raised about $900 so we could buy a cow and deliver it to a Honduran family. One local church presented our team with Honduran soccer jerseys! We also purchased laptops and a digital camera for our new missionaries Siney Medina and Olvin Florez. We are making plans for summer 2012.
