Jesus did not entrust his ministry to independent believers - he established a spiritual family.  We as believers are His family, His church.

Hugs, emotion packed greetings and dozens of conversations to get re-acquainted filled the Evangelical Holiness Church's 2010 annual meeting.  Since 1914 the thread of the Gospel's influence through World Gospel Mission and its pioneering missionaries has born fruit.  Two-hundred twenty churches from all parts of Honduras were represented in the annual business meetings.   

An official ministry for the family was established and presented during this year's annual meeting.  Kathy served on a panel discussion with Fatima de Pacheco (pastor's wife and professional counselor), Dr. Belzasar Nuñez (pastor and director of theological studies of the national church) and Natanael Padilla (university professor and professional counselor).

Ordination of three pastors was a great part of the meetings.  Our cohort, Larry Overholt ministering in Choluteca southern Honduras with his wife Angie are pastoring the Shalom Evangelical Holiness Church. 

The second pastor ordained by our national church was Mario Oliva.  Pastor Mario ministers to the inmates of our city's prison and encourages several churches in the surrounding villages.

The third pastor that was conferred the title of reverend is AMSLA, Latin American Holiness Mission Agency, Missionary to Mexico, Danny Hilton Pineda.  Danny, his wife Pastor Carminda and son Samuel serve in their second church plant in the Bajia of Mexico.  This pastoral couple pastored the More Than Conquerors Evangelical Holiness Church in 2004-2007. 

In Christ's Family we are brothers and sisters. 

The New Testament regards the duty of living by example as a necessity in the Christian faith.  Whatever might happen to us as brothers and sisters in the faith, spread all over the world, let us fulfill our role living the faith and praying for one another, giving so that others might hear the message of freedom.
