Summer 2018 Update
It has been a great year so far in Honduras. In 2018 alone, we have seen 31 people give their hearts to Jesus. We baptized 19 people. The Holy Spirit has been moving in the lives of so many people in our community.
During the weekend of July 13-15, we had our second annual youth retreat. Including adults, we had around 100 people. We had been praying for quite some time for the moving of the Holy Spirit in the lives and hearts of all of us. I can tell you, we were not disappointed. Friday night we had our first service and immediately we began to see God work. Our kids were coming together and encouraging each other through prayer and this took place during the song service. We were in the middle of the preaching service, when I was called away to talk with one of our faithful teenagers. When I turned the corner, I saw him completely broken and crying uncontrollably. I asked him what was wrong and he told me that he wanted to be able to praise God freely. I asked him why he thought he wasn’t able to praise freely. I then asked him if he knew without a doubt that Christ lived in his heart. I must tell you, this young man has been coming to our church and serving faithfully for a very long time. We all thought he was saved, but this night the Holy Spirit showed him that he was lost and it was breaking his heart. Misael and I led him to the Lord that night. Oh, what a sweet thing to witness when a lost soul realizes he now has eternal life in Jesus Christ. Immediately, we returned to the join the service. When I turned the corner, I saw the most amazing thing taking place. The preaching was over and the invitation had been given, and one by one several youth had come forward to be saved. Most of them, were ones that we had been praying for quite some time. Each one of our leaders had their Bibles and was leading those kids to the Lord. That night, we had 7 souls saved. To God Be The Glory! It was a night we didn’t want to come to an end.
The next day we had a day filled with many fun activities and more Bible classes. We had 2 saved that day. I remember one in particular that had come down for prayer. I prayed with him and asked him if he saved, and he told me yes. It really surprised me because from all I knew and had been told that he wasn’t saved but you really can’t question someone when they say yes. So, I prayed with him and I got up. Well, to my surprise he didn’t get up. I immediately knew something was wrong, so I bowed down beside him and asked him again, “Do you know without a doubt that if you die today you would be in heaven with Jesus”? This time, he started crying and told me “No, I’m not sure”. I am so thankful for the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
We are looking forward to seeing what else God has in store for us this year. Please keep us in your prayers.

For many years, New Desire Christian Ministries has been involved in mission work all over the world in places like Kenya, Canada, Mexico, Scotland, the Bahamas and more. The ministry has always placed great emphasis on God’s command in Mark 16:15 to, “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

In 2015, New Desire expanded their borders and established a full-time presence in the Central American country of Honduras. The ministry headquarters is located an hour and a half north of the capitol city of Tegucigalpa in the rural town of La Ermita. An unfinished house was purchased on a small piece of property in the heart of the community with a vision that it would become a home for our mission work in the area. In 2015, New Desire welcomed Kim Pate, formerly of Boaz, AL, to our staff as Director of Foreign Missions and missionary to Honduras. Kim has 13 years of experience in international missions, and as of June 2015, she is residing in the mission house full-time. In just our few short years in Honduras, we have witnessed many coming to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ! We want you to be a part of this work!

In the town of La Ermita there is an abundant amount of ministry opportunities. Our staff is able to accommodate each group according to their specific talents or gifts. Opportunities include evangelism, food distribution, crusades, VBS, construction, recreational (sports) activities, Bible studies, prayer services and much more! There is something for everyone in the work of the Lord!

If you or your group would like to book a trip to Honduras, please contact us at our home office at 770-684-8987. The all-inclusive price per person (flight, meals, lodging, vehicle maintainence and fuel, drivers, translators, rice & beans for distribution, etc.) is $2000.00 based on a 5-7 day trip. If you would like more information or have any questions, please contact us.

We ask that you continue to pray for God to provide the needs for this ministry. Keep in mind that New Desire is a 501(c)3 organization; therefore, any donation that you make to the ministry is tax deductible and you will receive a tax receipt at the end of the fiscal year. At this time, we are looking to build a building that will serve as a Sunday School space. We pray that you will consider helping us reach this goal.

We are also in prayer that God will send a pastor to lead our church. We are earnestly praying that God will send the man He has chosen to shepherd this flock. Additionally, we have a continuous need for funds to continue the weekly feeding kitchen, meet medical needs, school supplies, baby care items, and any other needs that may arise.

If you are unable to make a trip to Honduras, but you would still like to be a part of the work that is going on there, we have opportunities for you as well! You can become a monthly supporter of New Desire Missions to help us feed families in the community by contacting our office. We also pray that you or your church would consider donating to meet one or more of the needs mentioned above.

Thank you for your interest in our work in Honduras. We pray that you will consider joining us in this effort to spread the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those who don’t know Him. We know that not everyone is able to go, but we are all called to give, send, and pray. As Jesus said to His disciples in Matthew 9:37, “The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few.” We look forward to serving with you on the mission field!
