Hello from Honduras,
This is just a quick update for the older gentleman in the
photo in the last e-mail. The surgery team that is here right now
successfully repaired the two hernias that the man had. They were his most
pressing need and potentially most dangerous. Everything went well. The man
is back home here in Tegucigalpa. I would ask that you continue to pray for
healing in his body. He is signed up for the next surgery team that is
coming the 27 of August when they will remove the very large fatty tumor
that is on his upper back between his shoulders. His age was a factor in not
doing both of the surgeries at one time. But he felt good today when we
picked him up and said he did not hurt anymore. He was a little sore from
the surgery but not to much. Thanks for all your prayer. We appreciate each
one of you.
In Christ Service Always
John & Ana Lamon

Update from Honduras July 18, 2011
For the coming week we are working to send a man to remove a fatty tumor ½
the size of a soccer ball on the back of his neck. There is a mission
hospital about an hour and a half from Tegucigalpa in Guaimaca that has a
surgery team arriving on the 23rd of this month. So he will be going this
Tuesday for an evaluation. So please pray that he will be accepted for the
surgery. He is 79 years old and has had a chest infection. Pray for him to
be completely healed so they will do the surgery. He has had this tumor for
more than 20 years.
Apart from this we will be working in Los Laurels for 3 days this week. Pray
for us to be safe, always hear and obey God, and to understand the patients
needs and give out the medicine correctly.
Pray for our Dispensas to be signed. The dispensas will allow us to bring
some equipment for the women’s clinic and our truck {that was purchased 1 ½
years ago} into the country without paying 33% tax on the different items.
Pray for our application for an environmental permit to be approved quickly.
This is also for the women’s clinic. Things move slow in Honduras but we
know that our God can make things move faster. We also know that all things
will happen in God’s timing and not ours. So I will ask you to pray for us
to be patient when necessary and pray for God to speed the government
process up.
We are asking each of you to pray about how you can help us with the
construction of the women’s clinic. It may be that God wants to use you to
tell someone else about the project. It may be that God wants you to
personally participate in some way. We are just asking that you pray about
this and listen to what God is telling you and step out in faith as we have.
Listed below are some of the immediate expenses that we will incur in the
next few months. Thank you for your prayer and support and God bless each of
you.
I would also like to ask each of you to share this e-mail with others on
your e-mail list. Please don’t keep it to yourselves!

Today we worked in a neighborhood called Tres de Mayo or May 3rd. The people were
very grateful for our presence and the pastor along with his helpers took full
advantage and gave out tracks, prayed with some, & a few patients prayed to receive
Christ as their personal Savior. We had 120 patients today.

Prayer Request from Honduras June 25, 2011
Hello from Honduras,
After a quick trip to the states in which my lovely wife became an American citizen
we are back in Honduras. Since Tuesday have been hard at work trying to satisfy the
governments ever changing requirements. At this time we would like to ask you to
pray that our dispensas will be approved quickly and without further changes to
them. A dispensa is a paper that allows you to bring something into Honduras without
paying taxes and introduction fees which amount to 33% of the cost of something or
the value that they place on an object. We have requested a dispensa to bring our
2006 F250 Pick up truck to Honduras and another one for some pumps, water filters,
and a sewage treatment system that was donated for the Women's clinic. We also would
like you to please continue to pray for safety. Please pray that we will seek God's
will always and obey his voice ineverything we do. We continue to ask each of you to
pray for our ministry to be prosperous and grow in support and in the numb
er of supporters that we have so that we can improve our care that we offer to
those in need. Please pray about how you, your Churches, Sunday schools, etc. can
help with the women's clinic. Please use the share button and send this to your
friends and family.We appreciate each one of you as well as your prayers.
In Christ Service Always

Update from Honduras May 23, 2011
As all of you know we at “The Hands of Christ” is going to build a large women’s clinic just outside of Tegucigalpa. The time is fast approaching to begin construction. Over the last year and a half many of you have said you wanted to help. Many have stepped up and done what they could. You have helped monetarily, with in kind donations, or introducing us to others that can help in other ways. We are very grateful for those that have begun to participate in the various ways. We need more of our supporters and friends to help. We just ask that you lift our mission up in prayer and then do as your heart leads you. God will speak to you! Use the “Share This” button at the top of the e-mail and send it your friends. Encourage them to learn about the work we do & support us. Your friends value your opinion.
With each of you helping to spread the word of the work that God has given us, we can continue to glorify God in our work and with our lives. For those of you that have been here and seen firsthand the people, how they live, and the love we give them through our work we are relying on you to tell others of your experience. We especially need you to share your experience so that others may be encouraged and God’s kingdom will grow. If your church, Sunday school class, or other group of interested people would like someone to come and share their experience and to learn about how you can support the women’s clinic, please let us know. We have several that would love to come and share with you. If you have any questions, please contact us at johnyana_41@hotmail.com.

May 12, 2011 Update from Honduras
So far it has been a great week. We are working in a community called Vista Hermosa or Beautiful View. I think that is a matter of opinion. Any way we are working in a great church. They pray with the people for healing or other needs, council those that need it, & share the gospel of Jesus with them. All this with the people that are our patients. This is a fantastic church. We had 118 on Tuesday and 105 today. We will be there again tomorrow.
God is good all the time!
