FACEBOOK

Hi There! If you wanna be up to date with us, check out our Facebook page. I post lots of photos, some stories about our teams, and frequent it way more than this blog. SusanScottLedford is our page on facebook....come visit us there.

Time to stop and smell the flowers!

We've been a bit remiss in keeping our blog up-to-date. I got hooked on Facebook and neglected the important stuff. So, we shall try to keep up on the wonderful projects, service, teams, and good reports coming from Mission del Mar here in Honduras. Hope Cha-Cha and her bright red flower will help get us in your good graces.

Christian Motorcycle Association

Here is a photo of Pastor Jose Rivas Garcia, from Olanchito, who lost his leg and can't get around very well. He is also a supervisor of several other churches. We receive funds from CMA to purchase motorcycles every year for pastor/supervisors who meet a certain criteria. Friday, another Honduran pastor was blessed. Thank you CMA! Between the teams you send to us and the funds provided through the Run for the Son motorcycle ride every year, we see blessing after blessing manifest in this place!! God bless CMA!! NOTE: Normally, we buy Honda 125 with mountain tires to give out, but we bought this motorscooter so he wouldn't have any problem balancing on it. He's happy!

MARLIN, MARLIN, MARLIN, MARLIN

Hi, this is Marlin. Remember her? She was one of the kids sponsored for school right after we arrived here. She finished grade school and then went on to beauty school...She has graduated from that and now has started technical school in computers. She needs $1,000.00 US to take care of a year of schooling. And, her family is hoping for a donor who will pledge for 3 years so she can finish. Would you pray about getting involved with Marlin? Or, maybe one of our feeding centers. The donors have stopped giving to our feeding centers and we could use YOUR help in that area as well. There are presently 4 feeding centers and now they are receiving $45 a month to care for anywhere from 50 to 120 kids depending on the center. If you are interested in giving to the projects we have here in Honduras, contact MVI and ask about giving thru Scott and Susan Ledford to the children's projects for Honduras. You can call MVI at 407-859-7322 or writing them at MVI, 5144 S. Orange Ave. Orlando, Fl. 32809

FEBRUARY, 2012 ALREADY??

I can't believe we have not written anything since last year! Sorry. We were busy with a Christmas Team from Indiana, as well as some building projects around the mission house, a visit from Tal & Betty Owen, and a couple of birthdays...both Scott and I celebrated in January! But, I will get myself in gear and write, add some photos, and catch everyone up to date on the comings and goings and blessings at misión del mar. Happy New Year to Everyone! Got a jacuzzi tub to help me get through the healing process with my broken arm. (Yeah, right...that's what I told Scott.) Had 20 plus kids walk 10 kilometers to be at our house at 5:30 a.m. on Susan's birthday to sing and bring gifts and cards!! Amazin'! Helped Billy and Donna Hires give away a piano to a local music minister. What a blessing!
