A medical team of 9 people – 2 doctors, 5 nurses, 1 EMT, and 1 helper – are leaving for a week long medical team trip this Saturday.  They will be ministering in the outlying areas around San Luis, Santa Barabara, Honduras.  This is a continuation of a program that was started in 2009.  The government of Honduras asked our mission if we would consider medical teams for that area as an additional outreach of our clinic work in San Luis.  More information about this project will be in the Missionary Herald after the trip as well as more information on this site.  We would appreciate your prayers for this ministry and for the safety of the team.

A group of students and faculty from Stone City Chrisitian Academy are currently in Jalapa, Guatemala visiting the school there – Hope Evangelical Bilingual Academy.  Both schools use the ACE – Accelerated Christian Education – curriculum.  The students from the Bedford, Indiana school will be making several musical presentations.  They have had to learn Spanish words.  Additionally the students in the Jalapa school will get to listen to more American style English.  Their flights were originally postponed due to the snow in Atlanta Georgia but they did leave yesterday.  They will be returning next Tuesday – 2/23/2010.  Please pray for this endeavor.

Ronald and Anna Smith just sent out their newsletter and it had a great poem in it.  It is reprinted below.

He Is Coming Again

Out in the world the dark clouds are gathering,

Peace looks far off, hearts failing with fear,

But in God’s harbor His children rest in safety,

For all things point that His coming is near,

Our in the world is all discontentment,

Nations are weakening, and hearts are in pain;

But in God’s harbor His children are just watching,

And thrilled with the promise of His coming again.

Out in the world there is hunger and madness,

Cruel decption and all kinds of sin;

But in God’s harbor there’s soul satisfaction,

Who by way of the cross have entered therein.

Out in the world they distrust one another,

Will not heed warnings, nor even will pray;

But in God’s harbor all are safely anchored,

Watching and waiting that glorious day.

Evangelistic Faith Missions has operated a 20 bed clinic in San Luis, Honduras for over 30 years.  We have a contract with the government of Honduras and it is called a “convenio.”  This contract/convenio has to be renewed every two years.  Our last reveiw was excellent and we were given four years.  It is now time to renew the contract/convenio again.  Daniel Melton has started this process and it will occupy much of his time and effort this year.  New paperwork has to be submitted and the clinic has to be inspected.  Please pray for this ministry and for Daniel Melton as he works with the lawyers and government officials this year.  It would be wonderful if they would give us a four year contract/convenio again.  Honduras has a new president and it seems he is sympathetic to the Christian mission ministries in the country.  Hopefully this will carry over to the area of ministry through medicine.  We appreciate your prayers.
