What a week of REMINDERS of all God is doing and How Good He is!
Got this message this morning, from our dear friends who transitioned from SanAntonio to the Mission Field in Belize.
They went to be missionaries, thinking they would be hosting ministry people from the USA on a time of respite and renewal. WELL ... if you ever wanna have some fun, try telling God what your Mission is!!! (they'll still get to do that at some point)
While their house/retreat is still under construction, God directed them to a local Church Fellowship there in their community, and honestly, Bible Studies were pretty foreign idea. Not to mention, the $$ needed (even $15-20) to purchase a workbook or anything was WAY out of the local people's capacity.
One of the amazing things about HCC from the very beginning has been the desire to be God's Hands and Feet ... no matter where, w/ who, or what the cost. And so HCC jumped right in and said, "you get the ladies, and we'll handle the curriculum!!!"
WELL - they did, and it's happening ... in amazing ways!
I got this message from Belize this am:
"Thank you Jesus!! We have had 12-14 ladies weekly engaged in the study of Jonah! Because of a Belizean holiday next week we will finish on September 17.
Unanimously last night they agreed to wanting to do a 5 week study before the end of the year.
Without the support of HCC this would not be possible. Women are engaging, growing in the word and drawing closer to HIM! To HIM be all GLORY!
I prayed for community and HE has given me a mission field and a boldness in leading women i never saw coming. I am humbled and so grateful.
As soon as I get numbers and shipping (which may be cheaper and more reliable as an extra luggage fee when Brooke or my sister come in Oct) I will let you know.
Thank you so much to HCC for loving us (pir family) and this community so well. Thank for for helping us be the hands and feet of Jesus, feeding those so hungry for more of HIM!"
We can't wait to see what part of God's Story He takes them through together next, but HCC - THANK YOU for your YES! THANK YOU for worshipping together in Generosity in ways that allows the Gospel to literally go around the world! And Don & Julie - thank you for your Faithfulness and Obedience to go and lead where God calls! (although we miss you!!!!)
