Earthquake in Honduras
All is well in Rio Viejo after the 7.1 scale earthquake shook us out of our beds this morning. We currently have a team from Healing Place Church in Baton Rouge, LA serving with us and we all had a little get together in the dining room of the dorm at 3:45am. We are safe and sound, as we watch the internet for news of how the rest of Honduras and Central America fared.
Please stand with us in prayer for the protection and safety of the people here.
The medical and cooking portion of our team, with the exception of Bro. Larry and Mrs. Mary Ann, are in the village of Las Minas tonight in order to host a medical brigade tomorrow. There is no cell phone service there in the mountains so we do not have contact with them at this time. Please pray with us for their protection as well, we are expecting them to return to Rio Viejo this evening by 6pm and we will give you an update once we hear from them.
We believe God's hand has been upon us this morning, and we praise Him for His protection. Thank you all for your prayers.

Praise God! I know all is well. You are protected by His grace and mercy. God bless you and calm you. I pray there are no injured villagers that will need your care, but if there are I know you can all handle it with your usual calmness. I just wish I was there! PLEASE update us as frequently as you are able!! Thank you for your willingness to do His work in this unstable location. A location I love and miss every minute of my life. I love you all.

Hello,
My son Michael Simmons is with a group of mission interns from Lee Unviersity in Cleveland, Tennessee. He is in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. I heard from him in a garbled voice message, but not many details except everyone in his group is okay. Are you familiar with the group? If so, can you make contact with their group? God bless you all.
