It Happened on January 9, 2015

This is my 39th mission trip and it is to Olanchito, Honduras on January 7-13, 2015. Randy White led this trip and those going were Robert Lindsay, David Lindsay, Jacob Lindsay, Joshua Lindsay, Kristi Lindsay, Jerry Linhares, Tim Smith, Dwayne Bell, Aaron Slayter, Kathy Gwin, Cliff Bouwel, Nicolas Rainwater, Dr. Jay Warford, Rich Nadler, and Bill Feazel. David Lindsay and Tim Smith did the pastor training using Rev. Bob Mumford's outline on "The Purpose and Principle of Temptation." Tim Smith had the opportunity to baptize a young lady in the river which was a blessing to him. Cliff Bouwel was in charge of the crew building and replacing the bunk beds in the men's dormitory, termites had eaten away the beds that were there. Dr. Jay Warford was in charge of prison ministry in downtown Olanchito, where there were testimonies and sharing the gospel. Then they passed out Spanish Bibles along with toothpaste and toothbrushes to around 150 prisoners. We went into two different villages and ministered with prayer, testimony and the passing out clothing. My daughter Kristi passed out candy to all the children in these places, one evening she ministered on overcoming depression and prayed for numerous ladies. She is ready to go on another mission trip. The last evening Jerry Linhares shared his personal testimony and the Holy Spirit fell as he asked people to come forward to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Out of this prayer time two boys receive Jesus as Lord and around eight people receive the baptism the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. As I prayed for one lady she began to shake, then jump up and down and then began to twirl. The next lady I prayed for was slain in the spirit and remained on the floor. All of this was in a Baptist Church. My great nephew Nicholas Rainwater received the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Nicholas Rainwater and my grandson Jacob Lindsay will be joining "Youth With a Mission" this summer. Brother Charles thank you for your prayers and the prayers of many others which made this trip a success. There was a manifestation of the hand of God everywhere we went with many testimonies. Each one that went has a desire to go back, none returned home with a feeling of disappointment. We give thanks to the name of Jesus, honoring glory to the Lamb of God!
