Marc and I are finishing our business in the states. We have been in six churches in four states. Our journey has taken us through nine states and over 3000 miles. We have been in many homes. Enjoyed time with friends and family and made new friends along the way. It has been fun. I would be lying if I said I was not tired. I am exhausted, but I am so ready to get back to Honduras and get to work.
This last year has been a great one. Thanks be to God. And to each one of you. Without your love, support, prayers, and encouragement we could not do what we do. It is easy to make a list of what was accomplished in Honduras in 2008. But you are the ones that sent a container of school supplies. You sent money for spanish bibles, for bunk beds, for houses and for food. You visited the dump, or saw the pictures, and were touched deep within, just as we were, and sent money for that new ministry. You came and brought magi boxes for those people that seem to have no hope. You responded when we told of families being burned out or flooded out of their homes. You built houses and school builings and a church building and a foot bridge. You supplied the needs of our children at Casa de Esperanza. You gave a check for someone else to be able to come to Honduras. You lifted our names before the Father, both daily and in our times of crisis.
Thank you. Your gift made a difference to us and to the people of Honduras.
God has big plans for 2009. There will be two church plants and a feeding center. Money has already been pledged for one of the church buildings. The food has been promised for the first year after the feeding center opens. Money has started coming in to build the feeding center. Again, Praise God. Marc and I will be leading 8 groups. Again, the homeless will be housed and the hungry fed. The sick will have their needs tended. A mobile medical clinic van will arrive.
We don't really know what else will happen in 2009. We pray, and ask that you pray with us, that we have our eyes open to the things God wants us to accomplish.
No matter what God plans for us, it will be another great year in Honduras.

And we owe you a bigger thanks! for all that you and Marc do.
Is it raining in Nashville today?
I know it is raining buckets here and is raining in Huntsville too.
If you run into LeAnne give hugs to her for me.
If it is raining then she will be home and not out and about.
Love, Ginger
