08 Jul Devonshire Spends 10 Days with Honduras Sister Church

Derek Thrush, senior pastor, Devonshire Church (Harrisburg, Pa.)

Just last week, a team of 11 individuals from Devonshire Church returned from a trip to Puerto Cortes, Honduras. There, we spent 10 days reconnecting and ministering with our sister church, Iglesia Luz, in the barrio of Camaguey.

Our primary ministry focus throughout the week was:

• Leading a week-long Children’s Bible School.
• Meeting and sharing with home groups.
• Bringing encouragement to the Iglesia Luz church family.
• Helping complete the construction of classrooms and replacing a roof on the church parsonage.
• Serving the needs of families in the community.

Through the past four visits and a 12-year partnership in the gospel, it has been a gift to experience sweet times of fellowship as brothers and sisters united in Christ. It was such a joy to reconnect with a sister church family where we’ve seen friendships develop, families grow, and a deepening of Christian love for one another.
