Medical Clinic Outreach
Today, we had a clinic at the church where we are staying. We set up areas where people could get medical records, talk to nurses and doctors, get prescribed medicine, and an evangelism station where people received prayer and were presented the gospel. We had 85 patients in 4 hours! Many of the church members, people from the community, and people from the disabled home we went to yesterday came. Part of our goal was to encourage and come alongside the medical professionals and church already in that area, and we were encouraged to have 3 doctors, one nurse, and 20 church members join us! My grandparents were on the prayer team and were blown away by how open and vulnerable the Honduran people were. Also, how grateful they were for simply the gift of prayer. Many people shared hard stories about their lives, received prayer, and responded to the gospel!

Day 2 Recap from Eli Squire
Today, I was given the opportunity to play futbol with the kids from the church in Valle de Angeles. The church has a great ministry that supports kids and their families through futbol. The connection between the church and the program allows families to come to Jesus and provides them with a church family. I got socks and shinguards for the kids from my work, and when I presented them to the team, their faces lit up with joy, and they were so grateful to all of us. These kids live in so much poverty that a simple pair of new socks means the world to them. Also, just me being there and kicking the ball around meant a lot. It shows that your presence and devotion are sometimes worth more than money or any physical item. Visiting the futbol programs here in Honduras is my favorite part because I can reach out and connect with the kids through something we both love and enjoy doing. Through all of this, I never lost sight of why I was here. It wasn’t to play soccer, eat good food, or relax in the shade. It was to share the good news of God and his grace, pour his love onto these kids, and build his kingdom in his name.
