Orange Texas Mission Team

Last year we met Pastor Dan and his wife Mary Beth and they expressed interest in coming to serve on the island.  They wanted to help various ministries.  We communicated back and forth via email and decided that we would love their help in two areas. We need help in the shop and we were grateful to have Kellie and her team help to redesign the shop for us!  We spent one day in the shop  putting all the merchandise in specific areas (as opposed to having it scattered through the shop), we worked on signage making sure that our vision statement was clear, and that there is adequate signs so if I am not in there to communicate that people will still understand.  She brought down cute chalk board and the coolest chalk markers!!


The other thing I asked them to help with was a special Women's Tea for our ladies in Made in Roatan.   And what a special afternoon it was!!!   :-)


We had a great time with games, door prizes, great food, devotional and prayer!  They were all so happy and blessed.   My heart goes out to the women here because many of them are raising kids on their own and the stress of providing is often on their shoulders.   The deserved this special afternoon and much more!   

It was a JOY to serve them and I thank the team for their willingness to serve: to bring pretty plates and napkins, to pick beautiful flowers, to share His word and to pray from the bottom of their hearts.  You encouraged them and I know the ladies will be talking about this for a good long time.

Blessings!
