Dear Friends, this summer of 2010 was one of the best that I will remember!
1. Allison and ministry of Eternal Family Project (a girls home) are praying about moving from Porte Cortes and joining us here in Pena Blanca! It will be like family moving out here to join us!
2. Adam Cowan and team from Calvary East Albuquerque, NM was here and what a wonderful reunion we had! His team brought with them genuine helping hands that did things like fine tuning our plumbing problems in the bathrooms to mixing cement and security, the ladies ministered to precious people of the area, also helped decorate for the grand opening of Calvary Pena Blanca.
3. We had the opening service of our church here in Pena Blanca, good friends donated finger foods and drinks, we figured can't wait til the last door is hung or the final coat of paint is on. There will always be work to do, so we now call ourselves a church building.
4. Pastor Tim and helper Kyle Branum set up an incredible work team from Tenn., Grace Calvary, we know them as a connection from the Eternal Family Project. They set up our church driveway and trimmed the church with side walks, very helpful during the rain season. The water force is something to rekon with.
5. Not long ago we met this missionary fellow that wishes to remain unknown, he too proved to be a blessing to our church as he deals with church boards and elders that approve "helps ministry" to mission groups such as ours, to make a long story short we do not have to play church we can be church!
6.I also want to shout a big thank you to the folks that live in the great southern Bible Belt Region, that seem so akin to the building and fellowship of missions south of the border (US).
7. Last but not least a big hug to the local people here in Honduras that sence our needs and respond, we love you all much........Chris, Maria and the Staff. AGAPE

We sure had fun with old friends and new, look at all that talent up there grown by the Lord.

Pastor Chris and wife Maria, cut the cake, Calvary Pena Blanca.

Final blessings final prayer....................we are a church building.

THE END

Lots of people came to the grand opening of Calvary Pena Blanca, from right Brother Doug, Pastor Gary, Don Gaspar, and wonderful Mrs. Maria Rivera

Pastor Randy,Brother Jesse, Kat and Adam soon to be wed, thats why he is smiling.

Adam teaches the word...kinda looks like a bible character, like a voice in the wilderness.

We were so blessed this summer, by friends and family, it made the year, so worth it, thank God

The ABQ Team made here with no hitches. Big smiles on... they cut decorations for the Opening Day...don't have Walmart nearby.

Finally got the 25 K transformer up and set, in just a little while we will have electricity all of our own.

The ABQ Team took time out to spread some cheer at the Girls Home, it was super hot, but we were thankful for shade, the sand roasted our toes like peanuts.

We say goodby to the old, and hello to the new... missionaries

A time for praise, worship, and devotions as led by Adam.

Many things have been happening since last we wrote, we got a deep septic hole dug and capped, fianlly got to the level that we need, which allows quick drainage. We got most of the electric work done still need details done in the Sunday School. Some times things seem a little overwhelming and that is how it is. Now we are in the midst of trying to get the pvc under sink and toilet to match. We hire the talent that is availible and then we run the ball, sometimes we make a touch down other times we fumble and all the eyes and comments are on the quarterback, and thats good because my Father is all about gettin back up and do it again. He is a good coach. One of the final items is to get the transformer up and wired. Keep the words "completed project" in prayer for us here.

Finally got the car stickers, we think they look pretty good, saw similar types in C.C. Nicaragua

Water flooded the floor, problems with the water hookups,will need to be redone, till then no bathrooms yet.

Members chating before the service, can't believe how far along things have come. Thank you Lord
