It’s A God Thing Team 2016
June 10 – June 18
“It’s A God Thing” team travels to Honduras each year under the direction of the Holy Spirit. Larry “Bucket” Guthrie is our team leader. Our team has one primary goal: to spread the Word of God to the uttermost parts of the world.
Our team this year is made up of an eye team and evangelism team. We will arrive in Honduras on Friday. Saturday we will have a clinic at a church in La Ceiba and then pack the prescription glasses in duffles so that we can carry them on a ferry to the island of Utila off the coast of Honduras. Sunday we will travel to Utila and set up the clinics as well as having services. Monday through Thursday we will have clinics in a church on Utila. Friday we will pack up the eyeglasses and travel back to the mainland at which time we will load all the eyeglasses back in the eyeglass trailer. Saturday we will be flying back home.

For our prayer warriors:
Matthew 28:19-20
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.
We are asking urgent and daily prayer for the following from our amazing prayer warrior/rope holders:
1. Pray that the eye team will be able to correct the vision of everyone who comes to the clinic with a vision problem and will be able to dispense eyeglasses to correct their near and/or far vision as close as possible.
2. Pray that the evangelism team will be able to share the love of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, to everyone who comes to the clinics and that many will get saved.
3. Pray that those patients who don’t get saved will remember what was shared with them about how Jesus died on the cross for them and that they will, at a later time, ask Him into their hearts as their Lord and Savior.
4. Pray that those who get saved will then go out and share the love of Jesus with others in their family and community and that many others will get saved.
5. Pray for the safety of the team.
6. Pray for Bucket, our team leader, that he will be able to lead the team in everything God wants us to do in serving the people of Honduras.
7. Pray that the team will come home with a renewed vision of what God wants to do in each of our lives both in serving Him in missions here at home and in foreign missions.
