This morning we had one service with the soldiers. Several hundred soldiers gathered to hear the Gospel preached to them. They listened attentively as we testified, sang, and preached to them about their need of a Great Shepherd. Some of them laughed and interacted as they seemed to get the message at the beginning. As the service progressed, many were serious. When the altar call was made, many raised their hands and asked Christ into their hearts. After the service was over, the Colonel who was over that entire base, Colonel Coca, met with us and thanked us greatly for bringing the Word of God to his men. We were invited back anytime we wanted to come. He was twice a soldier; first in the army of the Lord, and second in the Honduran military. The open doors here are absolutely amazing. It seems like everywhere we go, there is an open door for the Gospel.
On the way home we felt like real missionaries. Bro. Scott Sumner and his wife took us to a fish restaurant overlooking Lago de Yojoa which is one of the well-known lakes in Honduras. James Hardy joined me in living the life of a missionary as we ate fish eyeballs and fish brain. (Actually, truth be known, I ate one eyeball and spit the brains back out.) Once home, we joined up with the South Team and after eating supper, rested and prepared for the next day.
Looking for God to do so much more!
