Our Home Fellowship Group

Not long after we arrived in Honduras, Barbe and I both began to feel the lose of community, especially in the area of our spiritual lives. While attending an HFMM retreat in March, we asked another missionary couple, Corey and Kirsten who were also fairly new arrivals, if they would like to begin meeting with us on Wednesday nights. They answered with a resounding "yes". Then Trey came on board, and then Yuly, and then several students from the Spanish Language Institute began to come. Our home became a welcome center for people passing through town and these same people turned blessing back to us and became part of our family.

Later the Cadmus family came with their two children, which filled a gap in our boys lives. And then, just three months later they moved on to Tegucigalpa leaving a hole in all our lives. The odd thing about our group is the transient nature that exist because many of those who come are here only to study Spanish for a few months. It is both interesting and, at times, heartbreaking, because we come to love these people through the shared experience we call "Camp Siguat" and the bond we experience in Jesus Christ.

This weekend was special though. We had a mini reunion today at Pizza Cantones. The Cadmus' and the Wells were both back in town and together with the Fosters, Trey, Ahnalise and Melissa we were able to catch up on all the news of the past few months.

I know that all of us went our separate ways today refreshed and encouraged. But we sure missed the two Katies, Yuly, Nathan, Cindy, Pastor Dave, Tyler and Laura. Wherever you guys are today, remember you have family here in Honduras.  We miss you!
