Dear Friends and Partners,
We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for
linking hands with us to preach the gospel. Thank you
for helping us reach Guatemala and Honduras. Thank
you for supporting our projects and us personally.
Thank you for spending time on your knees praying for
us! It takes all of it to do what we do, so we send
our deepest gratitude. We know that times are not
easy and yet in 2011 you gave and gave again. God saw
each sacrifice and every seed sown. We are standing
with you for the harvest to come in Jesus name.
Jobs, promotions, provision, health, breakthrough's in
those tough areas. Some have been standing for a very
long time--we declare that 2012 is the year of
harvest.
Just take a look at the seed you
sowed/watered/provided.
 | We are so thrilled to say that in our feeding
centers alone over 66,300 meals were served! That's
66,300 meals that children would have done without
were it not for your giving ! |
 | Praise the Lord and to the Glory of God 15
churches were planted in 15 villages that before had
little or no gospel! 15 villages and countless
villagers will be hearing the gospel for years to
come because of this! Makes us smile! I think it
makes God smile! |
 | We had the profound honor of doing 3 pastors
conferences and ministering to over 100 pastors and
leaders in Honduras and Guatemala. |
 | We held a ladies conference in Honduras and over
700 women were there! |
 | We had the privilege to make a missionary
journey to Africa, where we helped dedicate
churches, minister to the saints and helped with a
pastors conference. |
 | We were able to install a solar water pump in
the feeding center of Nueva Esperanza. |
 | We took out the clown and did VBS in all 7
feeding centers, telling them about the greatest
gift of all, Jesus! |
 | Then there was the Christmas in the village
Project that provided 240 families with food for
Christmas Eve, and over 600 children received their
only Christmas toy. |
 | Birthday presents were given for all the
children of the feeding centers. |
 | Mountain rallies were held on 3 different
mountains, uniting the saints for a day of praise,
word and ministry. |
 | The Lord helped us by sending special people to
give much needed free medicine and free medical
care. |
 | We opened feeding center #7 in the village of
Guareruche, built a kitchen and eating area for
those precious Chorti people. |
 | We were able to pay medical bills and hospital
bills and buy medicine for the pastors that were
injured in the horrible accident that left one dead
as they were returning from an evangelistic crusade
in one of the 100 club village churches. |
 | Together with special partners in the states we
began a bible school to train 15 young men and women
so that they can better carry out their ministry. |
 | We stood with and then rejoiced with Pastor Tono
as the Lord raised him up when he should have been
paralyzed! |
 | We comforted Sister Syria as she mourned the
death of her husband Brother Oscar. |
 | We were honored to train an intern who now feels
called to full time missions in the Peten jungle. |
That is
just some of the highlights of what 2011 held, there
isn't enough room to tell all of the details of all of
the marvelous things that God did this past year, but
we know that in heaven He will make it known to you!
God truly showed himself strong in 2011.
We ask that you would pray for us as we enter
2012. We don't want to miss a thing that God has for
us. We want to all that He wants us to do. Please
pray that our hearts continue to be sensitive and our
ears continue to be open to His leading and His
voice. That doors will be open so that we can speak
the gospel. That souls will be saved, hearts will be
mended, captives be set free, and that an unquenchable
fire be kindled in and through us wherever we go!
God Bless and Keep You,
Larry & Marla
Ordinary People-Serving an Extraordinary God!
