So Thankful - November 21, 2011
Yesterday was a great day at Faith. It was an honor to take in new members, recognize volunteers of year, and baptize people who wanted to make their commitments to Christ public. I felt a little rushed in doing so much and I hope that everyone felt as honored by service as I did helping to conduct it.
As we continue to pray for Erik one of the effects that his accident has had on me is that I'm realizing in a new way how valuable people are to everything that we do. Before Erik's accident I didn't realize how much time we spent together or how much Erik actually does. If you had asked me, then I could have listed everything, but now that he is out of commission for a bit, I'm realizing the value of his friendship and all that he contributes to the work of the church.
That reality has caused me to look around at other people and think about all they are doing that I might be overlooking. Just sitting and thinking about different people and what it would mean if they were laid up for a month like Erik has been has given me a new appreciation for what different people contribute to my life and the work of the church.
I am so blessed to a part of a wonderful family, and a part of a wonderful team of people doing the most important work in the world. To say that I'm thankful this Thanksgiving is an understatement.

Honduras 2011
This was my fifth opportunity to lead a group to Honduras, and I can say without a doubt it was the most productive trip. I think that many of the seeds we had sown over the previous four years began to bare fruit, and it was exciting to see.
The week began with our missing our connecting flight in Miami due to weather in DC. This had a domino effect on our schedule which literally changed almost everything, but it was exciting to see how God would take control of our schedule and bring everything about at the right time. I've tried to bring that lesson back to the states with me - knowing that God is in control even when things don't go according to plan.
Sunday morning, October 30, was our first productive day in Honduras due to the flight delays. That morning half of the team went to the school at the mission and began painting the exterior of one of the school buildings and cleaning school grounds - Hondurans know nothing of not littering. The other half of the team stayed at the hotel and prepared food and supplies for our first projects. After lunch the entire team went to the Los Pinos community to distribute food bags and share the gospel. At least 6 people prayed that day to accept the Lord, and many made commitments to attend church at Iglesia Jesucristo es El Señor (Jesus Christ is Lord Church, Pastor Carlos' church).
Following the food distribution we had a service at IJES. Before our arrival in Honduras we had sent money to Pastor Carlos to put a door and windows in at the church. He said that this caused many people to question who had provided the doors and windows and upon hearing the story they began attending the church. He told us that as a direct result of the doors and windows 23 people had been saved, and he wanted us to baptize them because we had provided for them. So, after an energetic time of worship and a brief message which I delivered and Jose translated, we baptized those 23 and 5 more for a total of 28! It was an incredible night.
After we returned home from IJES we planned for the Bible School at the Mission School which we did with the students Monday morning, October 31. We had a station for a Bible lesson (Gideon), a station for a song (Celebrate Jesus Celebrate), a station for games and face painting, and a station for a karate demonstration. Then we came together at the end for all 200+ students to sing the song together and receive candy. It went very well!
Over night Sunday into Monday 9 team members began to feel sick, and after seeing the doctor at the Mission Clinic, we decided to take Monday afternoon off to give them time to recover. Before leaving the Mission we did enjoy Luz's (Pastor Julio's wife) famous cheesy spaghetti. Maybe the sick ones didn't enjoy it as much as I did! I felt great and was hungry!
Monday night, after everyone had rested, we packed food bags for distribution to the hotel employees and other communities and we planned for the next day at Puerto Cortes prison.
Tuesday morning we went about an hour down the road to Purerto Cortes prison on the northern coast of Honduras. We shared there in music, drama, and the story of Gideon again (works best for Jose and I to pick one story and stick with it). We were received well, and I think we were a blessing to the inmates. Pastor Carlos and his wife, Naomi, packed lunch for the inmates, so they are always glad to see them coming. Often the inmates do not get to eat unless family members or the church bring them food.
We rushed back to the hotel where we had arranged to meet for a service with half of the hotel workers. Once again we shared music and drama, and Jose shared a message with them. After the message we prayed with anyone who wanted prayer. Many of those prayers were answered while we there, including one man whose feet were instantly healed. There were several stories of answered prayer and commitments to the Lord which emerged out of this service and another one we held for the employees on Wednesday.
Wednesday morning we returned to the Mission, and 1/3 of the team finished painting while 2/3 went into a neighborhood close to the mission which is known as a gang neighborhood. We were escorted by a woman from the church who leads a prayer meeting on the street every morning at 3am. She took us to houses where she knew there were needs, we gave food to them and shared the gospel with the evangecube. The last house we visited was the home of several gang members. Through this woman's relationship with them, we were able to share the gospel with them and give them food bags. It was very exciting!
Wednesday afternoon we had another great service with the hotel employees, and then we departed for the San Pedro Sula prison. This is a much larger prison (Puerto Cortes about 190) with over 2000 inmates. We shared music and drama, and Jose shared a message about God moving through worship. There was a great response.
Thursday morning we visited the Teen Boys Juvenile Detention Center and shared in music, drama, and several team members shared their stories with the boys. Only one boy responded there, but it was a good time of scattering seed. (Some sow, some water, and some reap!)
We then went immediately to the Children's Orphage. The state workers were on strike, so the only people watching over the children were volunteers from the church. We weren't able to do a lot with the children because there weren't enough workers to manage them. We visited the infant nursery which is always a difficult time. Many of the children are abandoned there because of disabilities and all of them suffer neglect just because of the lack of workers attempting to manage a lot of children. We left supplies with Pastor Luis, and played with a few children before departing.
In the afternoon we went to the Teen Girl's Orphanage. Many of these girls are there because they were abused sexually in their home. Many have children which they conceived through that abuse. Some of the girls are mentally disabled and were abandoned for that reason. We played games with them, sang and shared with them, and then gave them gifts including purses which they were very pleased to receive. We gave baby dolls to some of the girls and I'll never forget how happy it made them. They cradled them and acted like it was the greatest thing to ever happen to them. It was humbling to watch as I reflected on how my kids would have responded to those cheap dolls.
That evening we returned to IJES and distributed clothing to church families. We had a time of worship before the distribution, and following the distribution Pastor Carlos presented me with a "Key to the Church" telling me that we are welcome there any time, then he prayed over me. He is such an incredible man with a genuine faith and trust in God. I very much believe in the work that he is doing and look forward to ways that we can support him more in the future.
Friday all of our projects dried up, so we moved our free day to Friday and went to see the Mayan Ruins in Copan. I learned that "Mayan" comes from "maize," the word for corn, because the Mayan people thought that the first human beings had sprung from the corn. I think that I should have known that before. It was a really good trip.
Saturday morning began with one of the hotel employees asking Jose to pray with him to receive the Lord. He said that he knew he needed to pray in service but didn't, and Jose prayed with him. It was a really cool way to start the day. We visited the Guamalito market, then we returned to Los Pinos to distribute clothes in the community.
Every morning throughout the week we had devotions with the team before setting out. We reflected on a different verse from Psalm 23 each day with different people sharing. It was a great time that set the tone for the day, and I was proud of everyone who shared. Chuck Jessup lead us in worship at the start of each devotion, and it was a real blessing to begin each morning with corporate worship and then have those songs on my mind all day long.
As long as this summary is, there are still many details that are left out. While we were there it seemed that every time we turned around someone was telling us of an answered prayer or someone was making a commitment. The ministry times were rich and the people seemed genuinely impacted. I know this is a result of our four previous years there investing in relationships and the overflow of the attitude of this team of people. This 2011 team was a special group with an amazing attitude in the face of sickness and countless changes in the plan. I believe God rewarded that attitude.
Another current running through this trip was the continued blessing of Jose and Sara. They intrepret, but in that they serve us in so many ways. They make arrangments, order and distribute our food, plan transportation, and communicate with all the local pastors. On top of that Jose puts on the pastor hat and preaches and teaches while Sara puts on the nurse/mom hat and cares for everyone. What a genuine blessing they are to the work of the Lord.
The other consistent is Patty and her amazing ability to organize the ministry supplies. She uses the gift she has for organization and combines it with a tireless willingness to serve the Lord and the people. Just imagine organizing 2000 lbs of supplies in a living room with a constantly changing schedule so that you don't know exactly which event to plan for next. She is amazing!

Prayer for Jeff for Friday, May 13
The doctors have agreed to do another needle biopsy on the mass in Jeff's upper right lung. If the biopsy is successful, then they will be able to give him the exact medicine to treat the mass; instead of guessing which is what they are currently doing. The walls around the mass will still need to fall in order for the medicine to get to it, but WHEN they do it will be the right medicine waiting to "walk right in" and destroy the mass.
Please pray tomorrow that the biopsy is successful, and thank you so much for your response to our call to pray and fast last Monday. I know God's response to our humbling ourselves and calling upon Him will be to bring healing.

Praying for Jeff Robinette
Just wanted to put together a few thoughts for us as we join together to pray for Jeff's healing. I may not get the medical language right, but God knows the details. The simple version (that I can understand) is that Jeff has two fungal masses in his lungs that have resulted from the treatment that he received following his bone marrow transplant. One of the masses is open/unwalled and the medincine (antibiotics) is able to get to it. The second mass is "walled" off in his lung and the medicine cannot reach it. Surgery is not an option at this time because of how the masses are effecting Jeff's lung function.
Since that was explained to me, my prayer has been Joshua 6:5 in which the Commander of the Armies of the LORD told Joshua, "When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have the whole army give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the army will go up, everyone straight in.”
We are fasting and praying that the same God who brought down the walls of Jericho will bring down the wall of this mass, or maybe not even stop there and dissolve the mass altogether. We believe there are still miracles in our time, and we desire to see one for our friend!

Faith Community Devotional Week 1
Jesus’ Ministry Begins
Tuesday, March 15
Matthew 4:1-11
1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread." 4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.' " 5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: 'He shall give His angels charge over you,' and, 'In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.' " 7 Jesus said to him, "It is written again, 'You shall not tempt the LORD your God.' " 8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, "All these things I will give You if You will fall down and
worship me." 10 Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.' " 11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
worship me." 10 Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.' " 11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
Thoughts for Children:
· What does it mean to be tempted?
· Are you ever tempted to do something that you shouldn’t?
Thoughts for Adults:
· Jesus was obviously vulnerable when Satan came to Him. During what times are you more vulnerable (tired, burned out) and need to be on guard for an attack?
· Jesus leaned heavily on the Scriptures in responding to Satan,
beginning each response with “it is written.” Do you use specific Scriptures to respond to temptations in your life?

You Are the Salt and Light
Wednesday, March 16
Matthew 5:11-16
11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 "Rejoice and be
exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they
persecuted the prophets who were before you. 13 " You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 "Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a
basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Thoughts for Children:
· What does it mean to be the “light of the world?”
· Should you tell others about Jesus? Do you?
Thoughts for Adults:
· As adults it is difficult to walk the line of evangelism. We don’t want to offend and drive away, but we need to share the eternal message of Christ. How do you navigate this in your own life? Do you ignore evangelism out of fear?
· What actions and attitudes in your life would you say “shine a light” to others that you are a Christian?
Dealing with Anger
Thursday, March 17
Matthew 5:21-24
21 " You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.' 22 "But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, 'Raca!' shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire. 23 "Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has
something against you, 24 "leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
something against you, 24 "leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
Thoughts for Children:
· How should you respond when someone makes you angry?
· Have you made someone angry? Have you asked them to forgive you?
Thoughts for Adults:
· Are you upset or angry with anyone right now? Have you prayed for them today? If not, stop and do so right now. Ask God how to make the situation right, or if you need to just forgive and move on.
· Why do you think Jesus said for us to reconcile with other people before we come to worship God?
Say What You Mean
Friday, March 18
Matthew 5:33-37
33 " Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.' 34 "But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; 35 "nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 "Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 "But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.
Thoughts for Children:
· Has someone ever broken a promise to you? If so, how did it make you feel?
· If you say you are going to do something, like clean your room, do you do it?
Thoughts for Adults:
· What does it mean to you to have “integrity?”
· Do you make promises that you don’t keep, even unintentionally? If so, how do you think you should change based on this
Scripture?
Scripture?
Do Unto the Lord, Not Unto Men
Saturday, March 19
Matthew 6:1-6
1 "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 "Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 3 "But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 "that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly. 5 " And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the
synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 6 "But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

Thoughts for Children:
· Should we follow God’s rules only when others are looking?
· Do you ever pray by yourself or only when someone tells you to pray?
Thoughts for Adults:
· These verses talk a lot about a “secret” life with God. What is your secret life with God like right now?
· What is one thing you could do to improve your “secret” life with God? (private prayer, anonymous kind act, etc.)
