This has been the busiest two months on record for us here in Rus Rus. Busy, but oh so good. We have throughly been enjoying our time here with all of the teams who have graced our doorstep. We’ve been encouraged and uplifted so much.
The first week of January we started the new year with our annual VBS here in Rus Rus and some surrounding communities.
One of our major projects this year is turning an old forgotten building into a COMMUNITY LEARNING CENTER. It began with seeing a need, which sparked into a vision. We began to toss around the idea of a central, neutral place where we could host pastoral events, marriage conferences, health care education.
Each year seems to be summarized by a definable ministry theme, phase, or focus - usually not of our own design. This has been true ever since the start of MAG’s work in Honduras over 20 years ago. And yet, there has always been the consistent thread of showing genuine compassion in the name of Jesus.
March has arrived, and with it dry season has shown its dusty face about a month early. The grass has turned brown and wildfires have began. I am praying that the rain will come early this year.
Our annual brigade was the biggest yet. During the course of a week we saw over 860 patients. As usual we had people come from all over this area to receive medical and dental care. This year we had some new things to offer those who came to see us.

We are praising God for blessing our efforts in Honduras and for achieving many significant milestones this year. We flew the highest number of life-flights. We reached more villages with Vacation Bible School. We hosted two pastoral training sessions and held many community outreach events, all geared towards evangelism and life transformation- more eternal impact than any prior year!
We were also privileged to be joined by a Central America representative of Faith Comes By Hearing, who work to equip believers worldwide with access to the Bible in audio format. She brought solar-powered audio devices with the Bible in Miskito and Spanish. These devices will empower the church leaders to share God’s word with their communities.
As I manage the varied facets, projects, and demands of an international ministry, I find myself in need daily of [SOMETHING] that I have no way of providing— something that requires God’s grace and provision. So we pray. And then, amazingly, God supplies— and we are humbled and grateful and in awe of Him.
