Dear Loyal blog followers,
The last of the Intern is back stateside. After 68 days in Honduras, I have returned. And I do have to say, I was not to excited about leaving. Yes, seeing my family, my friends, and of course my dog (you da best ginger) were all things that I was looking forward to, but I felt as though my “ministry time” was ending, as if La Ceiba, Honduras was the only place that I could glorify God by showing His love; however, after thinking about it for a few days, returning has been much less bitter and much more sweet than I had anticipated, because I began to realize something–our purpose as Christians is not to glorify God only on missions trips, or only on special occasions. I am just as capable of serving, glorifying and enjoying the God I have come to love and adore here in the suburbs of Boston as I am in the villages of La Ceiba Honduras.
This is something that has given me peace while trying to readjust to American culture of schedules and slow-drivers.
This summer has been amazing, and I owe much of that to my two counterparts (Amy, Jamie) .
Please keep La Ceiba in your hearts, as the mission team there will be going through some changes fairly quickly. The Pettengills are leaving on a 6-month furlough to the States in September, and The McCanns are expecting their third child in early November.
And thank you all once again fro your continued financial and prayer support, you heard the call of Christ and you responded, and for that we are forever grateful.
God Bless,
The Intern
The three of us, Josh Bolton, Jamie Jacobsen, and Andy Stuntz, delayed college for a year (08-09) to serve as missionary interns in La Ceiba, Honduras. We helped two new missionary families start up several ministries -- a medical clinic, a kids' club, and ESL classes -- in a community called Armenia Bonito. By God's grace and provision (in part through generous supporters and churches back home), we were able to build relationships with nationals in the community, with our host team members, and with each other. We messed up plenty, but we trust that God used us in our brokenness to display his mercy and power.
