The family is all back on Roatan after a 4 week trip to the states and 3 weeks after returning we are busy and God is opening many doors of service and opportunity for the Gospel. To God alone be the glory. We are grateful He condescends to allow us to be a small part of what He is doing in Honduras.
Please Pray
Thank you prayer warriors and generous supporters!
DUMP MINISTRY - We are taking over coordination of the ministry at the local dump where families pick through garbage to find recyclables in order to survive. We are thankful to the Barrett family for starting this ministry and the work they have established over the last 2 years. The team is providing physical and spiritual food every two weeks. Please pray for this ministry and those hard working men, women and children who live and work there. Four people received Christ just this past week!
CARS - Lots of attacks by the enemy in this area. A house sitter drove our car while gone with no water in the radiator and burned up our engine. It now needs a new engine and the repairs will be close to $2000. God has provided a truck for Tish to drive while it is being repaired so we are grateful for that.
Every gift, no matter the size is precious to us and will be used to the highest possible good.
Thank you in advance for your partnership with us. All gifts are tax-deductible.
CLICK HERE TO SUPPORT MISSIONS IN HONDURAS!
MISSION POSSIBLE - 9 Churches, 4 denominations and 1 Big Event!
Travis returned to the island on June 7 to finish prep and welcome on June 11, 110 members of 9 different churches from Indiana who were doing a Mission Cruise. At each of their 4 ports, they were doing a mission project and Roatan was one of the stops. Travis coordinated the groups with a lot of help from friends and ministry partners. They built 7 steel soccer goals (Total of 24 being completed now), did a great VBS, fed 400+ people lunch and even did a medical tent to bless the people of Roatan. Over 450 people were in attendance. We are so thrilled when families, cruise shippers or Mission Teams come and it was a blessing to be a part of this wonderful event. The soccer goals constructed help keep hundreds of kids off the street with a ministry we have come alongside to support. Over 700 kids are in the soccer program on Roatan.

OLIVER'S BROKEN ARM
Last Saturday we returned to the house to find Oliver hurt. Oliver is our gardener's 11 year old child and helps setup at our church every week. He was picking Cocoa plums for his family when a large branch broke and he fell to the ground breaking the two bones below his wrist severely. Without assistance the normal procedure would be to straighten it wrap it and he would lose use of much of his hand for the rest of his life. We took him to the hospital and it was determined he needed surgery on the mainland. The surgery cost alone was $1500. We trusted God to provide and told the doctor we would deposit the $1500 Sunday after church. The only problem was we didn't have the $1500 yet. We did a collection at church and within a few hours God provided not only the $1500 for the surgery but the $2000 for all the expenses!!! He is now back smiling, happy and will be getting stitches out in 2 weeks and pins out in 4 weeks. Thank you to Jesus first of all who has all resources and to all who donated and gave sacrificially for this sweet child. A wise person once told me, "You are not responsible for all the pain in the world but you are responsible for that which God lays before you and puts on your heart." A wonderful internet radio ministry heard of the need and broadcast it to all their listeners. Listen to it HERE!

Kids Update
We were excited to bring friend Max Rennich, age 12, back with us for a 3 week visit to Roatan. He has helped with many ministries while visiting us. Max sacrificed his entire savings to help purchase his plane ticket to come.
The Morin kids continue to be busy on the island. Ella has been helping with administrative duties at Ms. Peggy's Clinic. Data entry and filing are a constant need. The ladies working in reception always give a big smile when Ella walks in to help!
The rest of the gang have spent several mornings counting, packaging and labeling medicines and vitamins which benefit those in need. Medicines are given at no cost when people in need come to the clinic.
New Friends
We were blessed to have Sarah and Scott Rabenold and their 3 children join us for the week. They helped out at the orphanage, in the colonia and blessed our kids with a fun boat ride and fellowship throughout the week! It was great having some fellow Vols fans in town!
We thank God for each of you and appreciate your prayers and support! May God bless you richly!
En Cristo,
Travis, Tish, Ella, Zachary, Heather and Eli
