Luke 9:2 "And He sent them out to proclaim the kingdom
of God and to perform healing."
On Monday, January 19th, four members of the Luke 9:2 Ministries Mission Team left for Honduras to conduct a new Ministry Leadership Training course. They will lead classes in Cofradia for three and a half days from Tuesday until mid-day Friday.
Doug and Larry will work with pastors from very rural, mountainous regions who have had little to no Biblical training. What they do have is a heart for their people and a love of the Lord. Doug and Larry will teach these pastors important aspects of sermon study and preparation.
Deb will work with pastors' wives teaching them how to come along side their husbands' work while maintaining an identity of their own. As a pastor's wife herself, Deb brings her personal experience and her own spiritual gift of teaching to these women in a particularly meaningful way.
Susan will share her years of wisdom and experience teaching children about God with these women and other church leaders. At their request, Susan will teach them how to make homemade play-doh and other teaching aids!
The focus of these efforts is to help equip local church leaders build the Kingdom of God. It is our hope that this will grow into a series of Ministry Leadership Training courses held throughout the year.
On Saturday, January 24th, another 35 missionaries will arrive for a medical mission experience. Five day-long clinics will be held in the area. Many of the people treated at these clinics will come from the churches of the pastors who received leadership training the week before.
Please join with us on this trip by offering your prayers for safety, health, and most of all effectiveness in sharing the love of our Lord with our brothers and sisters in Honduras.
