The Clow Communicator - May/June 2017
Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Colossians 3:12
Every May there is one major event taking place in La Ceiba -- SUMMER TEAM PREP! We are so proud of the Cains and the amazing job they are doing as the new coordinators of Summer Team Ministry. Also super proud to see the others on the team jump in and work so hard together to get everything ready. May also brought us a visit from our boss, Michael Lee and a vision trip for Andrew Hane who is interested in becoming a missionary. The very end of the month our three summer interns arrived.
And so it begins - June! We completed our first week of summer teams: Christ Covenant in Cullman, AL. The team hosted medical clinics as well as lots of painting at the PDE home. Working alongside the young moms was a highlight for many. This week we will be hosting teams from both Christ Community in FL and Kiski Valley in PA. Lots of work going on at La Isla on the seminary, clinic and dorms. Please pray for health for the full time missionaries, the interns as well as our visiting short term missionaries.

It continues to be a joy to watch the church plant in Teguc grow! Aaron Halbert has been working, together with other MTW missionaries in Central America to get Pastor Ordination set up. The LORD is doing amazing work as we seek to establish grow the Presbyterian Church in Honduras.

May our kiddos finished up school.
June they had the incredible opportunity to attend the first MTW Latin America High School retreat. We are so blessed that MTW acknowledges, understands and cares for the spiritual and emotional needs of MK's. It was a sweet sibling trip just before the girls move away from us.
