News Flash


Caloi and baby C.C. weighing in and Susan admiring God's handiwork

Hi! We have exciting news! Last night, August 28, at around 9:35 p.m., Dunia had her baby boy at home. They live in "Cassita Orquidia", the little house here on MVI property known as Mision del Mar. Caloi helped her to get the baby delivered, then Scott tied and cut the umbilical cord. Ginnie Street, one of our new missionaries here, cleaned the baby up and helped Dunia get him dressed properly. Susan manned the camera and got every exciting detail she could. Here are a few photos from the event! About 3 days ago, the Lord spoke to Susan and told her the baby would be born here at the house. Ginnie has this phrase she quotes often...."I don't know nothin' about birthin' no babies." I think it's from Gone With the Wind...anyway, Susan told her she better stop saying that....and, sure enough, there she was right in the middle of "birthin' babies"...And Ginnie was great at it! You will note that Susan is in mask and gloves. She has been very sick since January...3 months of dengue fever and then some low level flu and assorted bugs. A month ago, she got what was diagnosed as bronchitis and has been being treated by a pulmonary doctor since the 2nd week of the illness. After 4 weeks and still no improvement , she went to yet another specialist. After many, many tests, xrays, ultrasounds and examinations, the doctors announced their fears that she had something way more serious. This is Susan talking now, " I am NOT even speaking out what they said...I am believing what God said and that I am healed, cleansed, whole, and serving the Lord with gladness! That loser, satan, can't stand the thought that I am being called back into counseling, exhortation, and deliverance ministry and have been equipped with a faithful friend, assistant, co-worker in Christ, and TRANSLATOR in Ginnie Street. The two of us are preparing spiritually to storm the kingdom and do some "Street sweeping"...Clean up some people dressed in filthy rags of sin, illness, and demonic activity, and lift up the name of Jesus...The enemy just thinks he can keep me down, sick, and unable to serve. NOT!!! Let God arise and his enemies be scattered! Scott has effectively ministered here in Honduras for the last 4 1/2 years. The boat building ministry, feeding centers, motorcycle giveaways, movie nights in the villages without electricity, discipling fishermen, making this place look like a million dollars, keeping everything running, being a true ambassador of the Lord Jesus, this has been wonderful to be part of. I am excited to be jumping in with both feet and being a "Mary" for awhile...I have been a " Martha" for the past 4 1/2 years. Being a helpmate to Scott, preparing things for the teams to make their trip more comfortable, and trying to come up with yummy meals has been a blessing to me...But I am excited about what God has planned that is making the enemy sooooo mad...He has certainly tried to bring me down... So, thanks for your prayers and Praise God for Jim and Ginnie!

The little girls were there helping and watching the whole thing.
It was so cool! We praise the Lord that we got to be part of the exciting arrival of

Thank you Father God in the name of our Saviour Jesus Christ for the miracle of birth and for allowing all of us to be part of it.
