May Ministry Update


The water project in our community has been on-going and has ran into many delays. But through all of the delays we have had many opportunities to speak to the leaders we work with in the community (and the usual small crowd of people who surround us while we are there) about God's timing, patience, and the blessings of God.

It has been a busy time here in Honduras through the month of April. While we had some good family time at the end of March during Samana Santa (Holy Week, considered the “spring break” of Latin America), we have had a busy schedule since then.

 

Water Project

Drilling in Nueva ArmeniaWe praise God for providing 100% of our need for Phase I of our project! We had so much response, some financially, logistically, and in the form of sending us supplies. Our next steps with the well will be to build a pump house that will include a cement slab to secure the pump and electrical components.

Phase II of the water project will be to install a holding tank and water filtration system for purified drinking water. It will also include a path and covered area around the well site for filling buckets that we will distribute to the community. The filtration system depends on our water test results. If the results show the water is drinkable, obviously we can eliminate the holding tank and filter. Either way, God will provide!

Please pray with us!

  • Pray for the water project and for God's timing on the well drilling. Pray for patience for us as we see God's purposes in the delays.
  • Pray for Corey as he will be traveling to La Mosquitia (eastern Honduras) at the beginning of June. He will be assisting a training and development group from Alabama and will be teaching, driving, and translating among many other things. Pray for safety for the group as there has been ongoing conflict in that area between “narcos” (drug cartel), the Mosquitia people, and Honduran/U.S. military groups.
  • Pray for the development of our ministry and for continued partnerships and resources.
  • Pray for our decision to move Gavin to a different school next year (August). We feel the Lord leading in this direction, but need continued wisdom. Pray continually for Kirsten as she homeschools Garret.
Thank you for your on-going prayers and partnership!

In His mighty grip,
Corey, Kirsten, Gavin & Garret
