A day at the Beach!

A day at the beach! Well, it may not be what it sounds like...We met at the "town square" and we waited for a local church group to show up. Our mission...Pass out tracks! It was interesting. The weather had been sunny all week and this morning the clouds rolled in and looked like it was going to storm on us!



A couple locals looking at those crazy Americans.

The church group finally shows up, notice the very large speakers on top of the van...yes he was using them and he was preaching the Gospel...

Time to pass out the tracks and begin out walk to the beach about 5 blocks away.



We finally make it to the beach. Everyone is trying to find someone to talk to and give a track to. My only regret on this trip is not being able to communicate with the people of Honduras.
I did find one guy on the beach who could speak English. He told me he had lived in Miami for 15 years. He told me he knew Jesus. I'm not sure, I think he was homeless and lived here on the beach






The Teens of the church then did a little play on the beach It was very cool, and before long there were a lot of people watching them. It was all about how a girl got caught up in sin (the box around her says sin in Spanish) and she was stuck in this sin and could not get out, until a friend brought to her the good news Of Jesus, then she was freed from her sin!


This was an exciting event. We even managed to get on the news...Again


It is cool to be a part of building God's Kingdom. Much of the time you never know what role you really play. You might be the seed planter, someone else will come along and water the seed and then yet another will be the one to harvest the new plant!
I have said before I hope that when I have gone home to be with Jesus, that I will get to see who else is there as a result of something I had done. I hope I have the opportunity to tell everyone about our Loving God. What a reunion that would be. Can you imagine the reception a person like Billy Graham would have if everyone he reached with the Gospel were there to receive him...Its a good thing Heaven is an eternity...it might take while!
