To not hold in suspense, everyone is safe!

Now for the context. Early this morning at 2:36am there was a 7.1 earthquake off the coast of La Ceiba, Honduras – 95km from where we are. For over 1 minute the earth shook, some interns snored while we all were figuring what was happening. The medical and dental brigade were off site in the mountains of Las Minas (4 hours away) in tents when it struck. The commotion woke the whole the village and the line of 578 patients began at 3:30am instead of 7am as scheduled. Please pray for strength of our crew as little sleep and an earthquake can’t stop what God is going to do.

The whole group was under a tsunami watch for a while but since the earthquake was only 10km deep, the watch faded quickly. Not bad for an early morning quickly followed up by a local praise and worship parade from the village church at 3:30am singing praises to God for His hand of protection. What a morning. God’s hand is close, His Spirit is thick, and our hearts are filled with joy, thankfulness, and expectancy of what God has in store for the day.

Please keep our team in prayer (especially physical strength for the medical brigade) and for continued safety for the people of Honduras.
