Ode to FBC Medical/Evangelism Team 2007

Remember when....

.... yall came to Honduras last June?



.... you welcomed me as a part of your Medical/Evangelism team?
.... ladies in my room, we quickly made friends (Allie....GO CENTRAL TIGERS)
.... we ate that really amazing bean dip at that restaurant and we were so hungry?
.... Amy arrived?
.... Amy tried the banana soda?
.... Dr. Terry Watson always had a smile on his face?
.... Anna arrived?

.... Scott was NOT taking pictures (I don't remember any of those times....)
.... our team had so much unity?


.... Chandler played the guitar, and did an AWESOME job!?!!
.... Rachel was in charge of the key to the place where we kept all of our valuables, trustworthy she is!
.... everyone tried to get next to Kim in the nightly massage line?


.... Tonya helped the ministry view some children to bring to the Ranch (They arrived two weeks ago!!!!!)
.... I fell asleep on the concrete floor, or the bus, or on Rachel's bed?
.... Jeff made a new friend through the concrete floor ministry?
.... Sandra had great advice about evangelism?
.... Scott and Dr. Steve did a dance for us?

.... Jessica joined the REAL doctors and did her own medical work!?
.... the family from the house with the new concrete floor accepted Jesus Christ?!!!!!!!
.... Jason also joined our team, creating a neat dynamic?
.... Kat and Chandler worked side by side, as brother/sister, not only in Christ, but blood too?
.... God spared us from any physical harm while we were in the poorest, most dangerous parts of Teguc!?

.... Dan and Glenda celebrated 22 years of marriage?!
.... Jeff saw a scorpion (or so he thought)
.... Dr. Steve demonstrated the love of Christ as he washed our feet, and the tears flowed?
.... Tery and Mary stayed behind in Honduras for a vacation and sent the rest of us (yall) home?
.... Glenda and Amy were baptized when we returned home!
.... I got to see some of you while I was in LR this summer?
.... you were change by giving of week of your time and energy to serve the people of Honduras?

You may not know how many times I think about that week of my life. Even living here as a missionary, I was blessed by the week. I was blessed by the unity of our team, the open arms you extended to me as I joined your team. The fire and passion of the energy of your team flowed all week long! Christ's love was shown! This country was blessed. Our ministry was blessed! I was blessed as together, different people, from one church, we gathered to serve this people of Honduras, a foreign culture and land!

I'm praying for next years team, that it might be full of just as much energy and enthusiasm, causing a ripple of Christ's love to flow over this country! (I hope to join yall again!)

All glory and honor to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, over all the EARTH!
