BEmail from Kelly & Trisha in Honduras
August 10, 2019 | Issue 19
"You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous--how well I know it.”
Psalm 139:13
Top 5's:
Week Ending August 10:
  1. Finalized July financial reports and reviewed the Form 990.
  2. Received a call from a huge children's home in Guaimaca. Getting in touch was not easy! I had reached out via their website, Facebook, volunteers that I had met from their home, other missionaries. Finally someone returned my call and we now have an open door to take the DPT students to their facility to work with the special needs children there next week.
  3. Delivered giant print Bible to Aurora, gift of 108 newborn diapers to Norbel, and printer ink to Mary for a school in Ruedas de Tejas.
  4. Received a positive response from the organization that conducts Autism screenings. They have agreed to do the diagnostic screenings at a local school for free. All we need to do is donate fuel and lunch for the psychologists.
  5. Kelly and the farm crew continued to work on replacing fence posts. Kelly also broke down the chain saw and replaced a chain bar.
Week August 11-17, 2019:
  1. Host DPT team. Please pray for our plans as we will be offsite nearly every day they are here. The education and healthcare sectors are still protesting in the streets on random days, so please pray that this does not impact our travel plans.
Trip to the USA
The reason for my quick trip to KY was to be present at the birth of grandchild #6. Alexander was born on July 28 @ 10:54 pm. What a blessing to be there for his birth!
Iglesia Senderos de Fe
Kelly was asked by Pastor Luis to dedicate Ian, the 3-month old son of Kellyn, a church member. Mrs Aurora also received a giant print Bible that we purchased in the USA.
Maritza & Roy
Thank God, Roy was dismissed from the hospital on July 22 after an 11-night stay. Join us in praying for the best options for Roy and Maritza during our fall furlough to the USA.

While Roy was in the hospital, Maritza met another woman with a special needs daughter from La Mosquitia, the same area where she is from. It is so good for Maritza to have a friend!
Dorm Update
The contractor finished the cement contract work in the dorm and dorm bathrooms. He also installed the metal bars on the windows. We are likely going to start sealing the walls and wait on further work until 2020. These are pics looking at each end of the room where we hope to be able to sleep 32 people.
Prayer Requests
  • Roy's health and Maritza's strength.
  • The church, Iglesia Senderos de Fe and Pastor Luis
  • Great week and safe travels for the DPT students from WKU.
  • Pray for no protests in Honduras during the team and for peace in general.
