LOVING HONDURAS Volume 7, Issue 11 Apartado Postal #120, Danlí, El Paraíso, Honduras Dear Mission Partners, As we near Thanksgiving Day, I am counting my blessings. God has blessed me abundantly so that I can bless others abundantly. I thank Him because He has called me to Honduras and has given me the privilege of serving Him. He has blessed me with health and energy to put my skills to use. He has entrusted me to heal His dear children. He has allowed me to participate in the growing communities of faith. He has blessed me with senders and prayer supporters. He has sent wonderful teams to help me, such as Dan Paulo’s veterinary team that was just here, and He has given me other missionaries to work with. He has blessed San Lorenzo with the Schools of Hope program that has fed the school children. He provided bean seeds for the farmers there. He has allowed me to see many miracles. He has touched many Hondurans to work with me in charity and as volunteers. He has given me an unexpected trip to Texas to close on the sale of my condo there and spend Thanksgiving with friends and family. And last but not least, salvation. And in doing all this, He has given me a purpose for my life. I am continuing to try to be obedient. For His Sake, Jeannie November 2014 Mike, Tito and Stanley from Dan Paulo’s CVM team vaccinating and worming cows. You can see that it’s much easier in a chute. God blesses people who patiently endure testing. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. And remember, no one who wants to do wrong should ever say, “God is tempting me.” Temptation comes from the lure of our own evil desires.
