Honduras-- Aaron

To start things off, this has been an absolutely incredible week in Honduras. This has been my second trip to Honduras and it has been just as humbling as the first. During our time there we visited 4 villages where we told bible stories, shared testimonies, played with the kids, and loved and prayed over the Chorti people. It was a blessing to get to interact and share with the children and adults alike in ways that only God could have prepared for us. In the last village we visited, Chonco, we were also able to go on a prayer walk through the village and it always amazes me at how gracious and grateful the people are to us complete strangers. After we prayed over the village leader's home and family he told us how appreciative he was of the work that we were doing and it was a humbling experience to see how the Lord was working there. The pinnacle of the week was probably getting to see 12 people from the village of Miramundo get baptized in the river on Saturday. It was an awesome experience getting to see these people give their life over to Christ and to see the fruit of some of the seeds that have been planted over the past years. God is truly working in Honduras and in the Chorti people and it has been an amazing experience getting to see this firsthand. I thank you all for all of the prayers that were sent our way throughout the week and ask that you just continue to pray for these people and for other mission teams that will be in Honduras.
