News From Honduras
April 23, 2008
Greetings from Honduras
John & Ana Lamon
We hope this finds each of you enjoying the blessing that God has for you. This week we have the privilege to have a medical group with us from Brentwood UMC in Brentwood Tn. We will be blessed with their presence until Saturday.
Tuesday we
went to a community 30 minutes outside of Lepaterique where we were able to bless 206 people with medical care and another 47 with dental care. On this day we also had 2 wonder ladies from Canada with us. They were a lots of help. Today we went to a community called Los Jobos which is about 30 minutes north of Talanga just before you get to Guaimaca. Los Jobos is around 5 miles off the main road. In Los Jobos we gave medical care to 226 people. One we sent straight to the hospital that was in the process of a heart attack. Thursday and Friday we will be in Fuerzas Unidas here in Tegucigalpa.
We thank each of you for your continued support that makes all this possible.
Pray for:
1.This team to be safe while here in Honduras and to receive what God wants them to.
2. That the team will continue to be a blessing to many.
3. Pray for money to come in to purchase the land for the
hospital and put a fence or wall around it.
4. Pray that we will always hear God’s voice and obey it.
5. Pray that God will continue to use us to further His kingdom.
Always
In Christ Service
John & Ana Lamon
