Successful Mission Trip

Well thanks to all my customers, condo owners and God, our son was able to go on his mission trip to Honduras.

It was a successful trip. They done more than expected. Their main purpose was to build 3 new homes on a new piece of property that was donated to them.

My son informed me while there, that he lifted over 700 cinder blocks himself. Thats a lot of hard work for a 16 y.o.that doesn't do a lot of that type of labor. I know it feels so good to him and me too that those precious orphans are now sleeping in a much safer home.

There were several miracles that took place while there. To mention a few a man was bit by a deadly scorpion on the thumb.  The troops gathered around him and prayed for him. He said he could feel the venim leaving his body. He came home safe and sound and without a mark. Can we say Praise God!?

While my nephew was waiting in the airplane to take off, he received a last minute phone call from a client.  The client called to inform him that he was sending $5,000 immediately to help pay for the new homes. At that time $13,000 was still needed. All the money that was needed has since been raised. Can we say praise God, again? He is so faithful.

I could go on and in about how good God has been this summer to all the the reams that went to help. He privided, guided, protected and directed everyone, every step of the way.

Thank you to all who purchased items during Our fund raising. You too should know that you helped put an orphan in a very safe and secure home. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Don't worry,  I've been bit by the Etsy bug and will continue to sell. Besides, it's an aweful lot of fun.

Til next time
