Greetings from San Pedro Sula, Honduras! All the talk on the streets this morning is about the US-Honduras soccer game to be played here in San Pedro Sula this afternoon. It promises to be a hot day–it was about 33 degrees yesterday (92 Fahrenheit).
On this last day in Honduras, I will meet with various members and leaders of the local church. Tonight is the normal midweek Bible study. Here in SPS, we had three persons saved and added to the church by baptism. During barely two days in Omoa, we met with the church with one reconciliation and one baptism, along with numerous visits and contacts.
I spent a couple of days at Baxter Institute in Tegucigalpa before the trip to SPS. It was good to get to know Steve and Dianna Teel better, and it was a joy to participate in the inauguration of the fifth president of Baxter.
Before that, I spent about a week in Catacamas, Olancho. There I met with preachers from eight congregations for three days of seminars focused on teaching and preaching God’s word. I preached in five churches. The schedule averaged about four hours of teaching and preaching each day, plus numerous visits and contacts to encourage and strengthen the churches.
