For the past several weeks we have been teaching the "Christian Soldiers" theme in our sunday school. Each week we talk about a new piece of armour that is necessary in this battle between good and evil. We decided to do a competition and we broke the class into two teams. Each week they win points for their team by bringing visitors, saying their verses, their attendance etc. On Tuesdays we go to a park where the two teams compete for more points. We usually have one review game of Sunday`s stories and the winning teams gets to add more points for their team. After the review game we usually have a fun competition not for points such as water relays or a soccer game. This next Sunday completes the competition. The teams are very close so it will be exciting to see how hard they will work for this last Sunday. The winning team will be going on a picnic to El Picacho a mountain overlooking the city, where there are playgrounds, and a zoo. You can see pictures on one of our previous posts of El Picacho. It´s going to be an interesting Sunday.
We are working in Tegucigalpa, Honduras with Hope International Missions. Our primary efforts involve church planting and discipleship. God has blessed us with three small churches, one is located at our home in the neighborhood of Tiloarque. The other church is about 15 minutes from our home in a neighborhood called Las Uvas. The third church is about an hour and a half from our home in a village called Las Delicias.
I am a graduate of Penn View Bible Institute located in Central Pennsylvania. I graduated in 2004 from the institute while I was also youth pastor at the Beavertown God's Missionary Church. I was married to Hannah Jarasat in June 2004. After spending three years as youth pastor, Hannah and I joined Hope International Missions and arrived in Honduras in 2006. We are blessed with two boys, Joseph and Daniel.
