Land is Purchased!
WE HAVE THE LAND FOR THE WOMENS CLINIC !!!!
Wow! God has truly blessed us and the work we are doing here in Honduras!
With help from many people, The Hands of Christ, Inc. was able to raise the money to buy this beautiful 8 ½ acres of land. We give all the honor and praise to God! This is His work that we are doing and even in the mist of hard economic times, he has supplied all that we need for the purchase of the land. The land is basically flat with some scattered pines trees as well as good building sites for the clinic and other necessary buildings. (See attached photo).
Now, we are ready to raise money for the infrastructure (access road, well for water, septic system), building foundations, and security wall. We have contractors that are going to come and lay the blocks for the walls of the buildings. God is providing for this project every step of the way. After all, it is from Him and for Him that we do it. Many people have said they wanted to contribute to the buildings themselves and not the land purchase. Now is the time! We are ready to begin construction. Please send your donations to the post office box listed below with “clinic” in the memo blank.
Right after the group from Kentucky left Honduras a few weeks ago, we worked in several poor neighborhoods in and around Tegucigalpa. We saw around 600 patients. We were fortunate to have great helpers in nurse Brandy and Karla, one of our translators. The end of last week we worked in San Ignacio (about 2 ½ hours from Tegucigalpa) and El Naranjal (about 4 hours from Tegucigalpa). What a blessing it is to go where the need is greatest! In these two communities we saw around 200 patients over 2 days. Here we worked with nurse Kelly, dental hygienist Kathy, and Wanda, who is an assistant to a surgeon. What a great team they made. We also had Miny, the local dentist that we use from time to time with us. She stayed quite busy. We worked though the local pastor, Jose Vasquez and his wife on this venture.
We have lots of fun serving God, sharing His word, and meeting wonderful people. It is like moving in a spiritual dimension as we let God use us His way, in His time, and resting in Him and we believe that even thought there is an economic downturn in society, God is still on His throne and in total control.
From all the Lamons in Honduras, we wish you a Happy Easter!!
Always in Christ’s Service,
John & Ana Lamon
