Missions Article Published Erin sharing our ministry at Morningside Church in Phoenix, AZ.

March Furlough Work In the past month we presented our ministry in AZ and CA. Mike and Erin spoke at churches in Phoenix, AZ and Elk Grove, CA. Mike preached twice and Mike and Erin put on a two-day missions conference in CA. Erin continued working fulltime with cancer patients at Phoenix Children’s Hospital.

Team Honduras Retreat Mike and Erin went to La Ceiba to participate in our annual Team Honduras retreat. Our 14 missionaries were joined by eight staff who helped facilitate the event. Our mission team was guided by MTW’s Global Training and Development through a team development training. Michael Lee provided counseling and the Global Youth and Family Development crew cared for the team’s kids. It was a quality time of praying, planning and study.

In January Mike gave a speech called “How Could God Use A Missionary Like Me?” The honesty and vulnerability resonated with many people. Since then the speech has been turned into a popular article and published by MTW. You can read the original post here: http://bit.ly/1B4eH3W
