For many of us, summer break brings memories of beach vacations, mountain retreats, or time spent watching kids running through sprinklers in the back yard. But this year six members of Celebrate Recovery at Memorial Road get to have even more fun working with a new Celebrate Recovery in Honduras.
Last year, after our summer mission trip where we trained leaders, the church in Catacamas, in cooperation with the Predisan mission, founded the first ever Celebrate Recovery program in Honduras.
Thanks to the contributions of Celebrate Recovery participants and anonymous Memorial Road contributors, this year we'll again spend 9 days working with this new Celebrate Recovery ministry at the church in Catacamas, Honduras. Sheldon, Christi, Daniel, Cole, Andrew and I will spend our days working with Celebrate Recovery leaders and doing maintenance on the ROPES course at the CEREPA addiction treatment facility. We'll share our testimonies, attend Celebrate Recovery meetings, and train new leaders.
While there are no beaches or sprinklers in Catacamas, the mountains are beautiful. The work is long and challenging, but this "vacation" is a time of spiritual renewal for everyone who goes. We come back physically tired, but spiritually energized. Thank you so much for your support. We covet your prayers!
Grateful Believer,
Dan
