Tonight we started the kid’s crusade, and we had a good start. We introduced the recruits and Goliath, setting the stage for the future days.
We were able to get a little more sleep this morning, because we didn’t have to travel as long to the first base, I believe we all enjoyed this and were thankful for the extra sleep. This day was busy as well, we traveled for more than 12 hours again this day, but even Christ Himself had a very taxing schedule (as we see in the Scriptures, at times He would take His disciples away just to try and get a little rest because of their weariness). It was either today or yesterday (I can’t remember which day), we had a service where Bro. Scott called whoever wanted to come to the front (I think it was for salvation because the message was about salvation, and being changed; I can’t speak Spanish so I’m guessing that’s what the altar call was about). But it was in that particular altar call that I remember that there was a soldier whose shoulders were literally shaking because he was crying and praying so hard. I remember thinking that it was that single moment that made every cent that I had spent for the trip and the things involved; the time off from work which resulted in the loss of a couple of weeks’ worth of work, it was that moment that made it all worth it! Thank God for this opportunity!!! Thank God for the Sumner’s sacrifice and their extended offer to S.E.N.T. to come and be a part of God’s work through them, I am humbled and extremely grateful for all that God has allowed me to witness and be a part of! Praise God!!!
This morning we left at 4:00 A.M., we then traveled for approximately 3 hours. After arriving at the paratrooper base, Bro. Hough was the first one to preach and he challenged the hearts of the soldiers. We got to witness the Honduran army perform some of their routine drills. We went to 5 bases that day (including the one Bro. Hough preached at) and preached, sang, and testified. The Lord moved in the services and it was evident by the response to some of the soldiers whose hearts were tender toward God. It was a busy day; we traveled from 4:00 A.M. to approximately 8:00 P.M. that evening.
We left Pittsburg with the expectation of meeting Bro. Pahlman in Atlanta, Georgia but his flight had been cancelled so we would not meet Bro. Pahlman until we arrived in Honduras. We had a good flight and made it safely to our destination in Honduras.
