Summer Update

Good Day Dream Builders,

I pray that all is well in your world. I pray that Psalm 91 covers your home and your family. These are different times that we are living in…BUT GOD is still on The Throne. He is still with us and He is still at work on our behalf.

We find ourselves doing things a little different these days. Schools and churches are still closed…pretty much everything is closed. But during all the closures we are still feeding children and now feeding their families as well. We have also joined with a few other ministries to get food out to people in need. Now is not the time to stop…but to do more. Hallelujah! Schools may not be in session right now, but children are still doing their homework and are working in the gardens. From what we have been told the gardens are doing extremely well. Praise God!

As I stated earlier…we are still feeding the children and now their families as well. William is actually in the process…along with the rest of our Team…delivering this month’s food packages and other supplies. Things may look different and feel strange…BUT GOD has kept us going!!! All Glory to His Name!!!

Continue your prayers for Honduras. There have been numerous cases of this madness reported there…which they are not equipped to handle…with hospitals and meds like the USA. But God has His Hand on them. They were in an extreme drought…but now they are being hit with heavy rains and a Tropical Storm. When the rains are heavy…flooding usually takes place. If you have been to Honduras with us then you know that many of the homes cannot handle heavy rain and flooding…especially the homes with dirt floors. But God…

All in All…God is Sooo That Good…All the Time!!! Blessings Always!!! Mike and PaMela

Blessingly Busy…

Good Day Dream Builders, 

I pray that this new day found you all walking in the blessings of Our Most Gracious Father. 

Things in Honduras are busy…blessingly busy…(I know that is not a word…but it should be.)!!! We are blessed to be a blessing…We are blessed to be able to bless others out of our blessings because we are blessed…blessingly!!!

The children and teachers are doing well. They have had many visitors over the last few months…teams from Metro Tab, Covenant Life, and The Grove. The children, teachers, parents, and schools were blessed greatly!  

There have been numerous hugs given and received since July…lol. 

Honduras as a whole has had a very tough year. We are just now getting rain that has been months delayed for what is suppose to be the rainy season. Prior to the rain coming we were in an extreme drought. Farmers lost a good portion of their crops…which means they did not need to hire workers. 

No crops, no work. No work, no money for food. 

Continue your prayers for Honduras and for the children as the school year is coming to a close for this year. Continue to pray for us as we start planning and preparing for 2020!!!

Blessings Always, 

Mike and PaMela

Faces of Dreams – Write the Vision

Good Day Dream Builders,

As always, I pray that your new day found you doing well and walking in the blessings of The Father. Here in Honduras all is well and we find ourselves surrounded by ALL of God’s Unfailing Love, Amazing Grace, and Greatest Blessings.

Over the last three months the children have had the pleasure of having many visitors…Hondurans and Friends from the States. In those visits there have been a lot of fun and laughs. God is Amazing!

Habakkuk 2:2 says to write the vision and to make it plain on tablets…

While in the schools we are continually asking the children about their Dreams. We have many Doctors, Firemen, Policemen, Teachers, Lawyers, Pastors, and much more. To encourage the children we have had Hondurans give their testimonies of achieving their Dreams. To see the children’s faces when they hear that someone from their area or someone with their similar background has actually seen their Dream come true is priceless. To see them have hope is what Faces of Dreams is all about.

Recently, we focused on updating our Dream Walls. We went in classrooms and explained the importance of writing their vision (Habakkuk 2:2). Each Child wrote their Dream down and placed their Dream on their classroom’s Dream Wall. To see them talk about what they Dream of being is a true blessing.

One of the many blessings for me was our visit to Los Llanos. We spoke with the older children first and told them that we needed them to help us with the younger children. To see them take time and help the younger children…WOW…I was in AWE!!! We have some very Amazing children in FOD!!!

We ask that you continue to call Faces of Dreams out in your prayers. There are many great things taking place in Honduras. BUT…We Declare and Decree…OUR BEST IS YET TO COME!!!

Blessings,
Mike and Pamela

Better Days…

Good Day Dream Builders,

I trust that you all are doing well…and staying warm for those in the Chattanooga/North Georgia area. Believe it or not…I am in Tegucigalpa, Honduras and freezing. I was not prepared for it to be cold here…lol! With that being said, Mike and I arrived in Honduras safely and are at work today…and there is a lot of work to be done. William did an AMAZING job while we were in the states…but together we can do more. Moving Forward Together!!!

Here are a few pictures of the food and vitamin give away!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Every FOD child received food for their families during this school break that they are on and vitamins for all of the children in their families. Thanks to Metro Tab Church for all their giving into this project. God is that Good!! We are Better Together!!! I would like to thank everyone that participated in the FOD Christmas this year. I believe that we were able to bless more children this year for Christmas than ever before. God is so that Good!! We are definitely Better Together!!! I would also like to thank all the new comers to Faces of Dreams.

Thank you so very much for choosing to join with us so we can help provide Better Days for some pretty amazing children. Your child/children and you will forever be changed. The children will be giving opportunities that they normally would not have and you will be blessed for your giving. That is just how God does it…He Blesses the giver and the receiver!!!

We are Definitely Better Together for such a time as this.

Gracias por todo! Bendiciones! Te Amamos!

Thank You!

Good Day Dream Builders,

I trust that you all are doing well. I have some wonderful news to share…as of yesterday, we have all 202 children in Faces of Dreams SPONSORED!!! God is That Good!!! With that being said, I would like to extend a very appreciative Thank You to all our new Dream Builders. We welcome you and Thank God for sending you our way!

We have been in close contact with our team in Honduras during our stay in the states. They tell us that everyone is doing well. William has been working overtime ensuring that all of the children have what they need. As he has been following up with the children at the schools he has also taken on the project of following up on the children in their homes. When visiting homes some greater needs have been identified. Please know that if needs are identified at your child’s house I will share the findings with you as soon as I possibly can. Together, we are changing and bettering that lives of some very precious children.

Mike and I will be heading back to Honduras in a couple of weeks…please pray for our safe and problem free travels. Soon after returning to Honduras we will be welcoming our July Aquaponics Team…so please be in prayer for that as well. We truly believe that this will be a history making experience…this being the first ever aquaponics system in Honduras. “Give a Man a Fish or Teach him how to fish.” Again, thank you ALL for being Dream Builders and Life Changers. WE truly are making a difference in the lives of many!!!

Blessings, Mike and PaMela

FEBRUARY 2017

Good Day Dream Builders,

I pray that this new day finds you all doing well. Mike and I are back in Honduras…Hallelujah!!! We found Honduras to be ROCKIN’ and MOVIN’ FORWARD like it was when we left…Thank You Jesus!!!

We spent the last two days in the schools at Los Llanos, El Tablon, and Barcelona. I am pleased to report that all of the children look great. As I have their faces in my thoughts as I am typing this…I am still amazed at how well they looked and how much they had grown over their summer break. The children and teacher are more than ready to get this new school year going…and so are we!!!

The last few days was spent verifying that all of the students were in school and us getting their lists of needed supplies. Once we have all the supplies in place we will start on uniforms and shoes. Our goal is to do our very best to make sure that these children have all they need to be successful in school. We can only do that through this program and being connected to you. Thank you so much for being a HUGE part in ensuring that these precious children have a Future and a Hope!!! God is SO GOOD!!!

If you all will remember Mike and I have talked about how things here have exploded…well they continue to expand!!! This year we are pleased to welcome 30 more new children…that is about 180 children overall. This is a huge increase from our first year of FOD having only 47 children. Mike and I have learned so much over the last several years…but we have much more to learn. So Praise God for Directing our Path and for Sending You and All of the Future Sponsors our way.

TOGETHER WE ARE DREAM BUILDERS!!!

Thank you so very much!!!
Blessings,
Mike and PaMela

FACES OF DREAMS UPDATE

Good Day Dream Builders,

As always, I pray that this message finds you all doing well and walking in the Blessings of The Lord. As most of you know, we have had a very busy few months. We had a team down in July, dug the well and placed filters in homes in August, and have had two teams in September…all the while continuing our other projects. God is So Good!!!

We have seen EXPANSION in the Devotional Program…today, we are in 43 schools…that is over 10,000 Teachers and Children praying and hearing The Word of God Everyday. And, OVER 370 BORN AGAIN…and MANY, MANY Lives Changed. Go Ahead and SHOUT…We are!!!

We have seen EXPANSION in the Crocheting Classes as well. A lady from the first class has branched off and will soon start sharing her talents with some of the other ladies in her church. And, get this, a Teacher in El Tablon wants to add knitting to their Home Economics type classes. So, keep the yarn and needles coming…lol.

As for the children, most, if not all, are doing very well. In a land of poverty we always have those children that do not have the best home lives or living conditions…which always cause us to have some children that are more needy than others. I ask you to pray not only for the child/children that you sponsor, but ALL of the children. God Loves the Little Children of The World!!!

Blessings to All!!! May The Father of All cover each of you with His Love and Grace!!!

We Love you,
Mike and PaMela

JULY 2016

Top of the day to you Dream Builders,

As always, I pray that this message finds you all doing well and walking in The Blessings that The Father has for you. To say that Honduras has EXPLODED would be an understatement. We are now in 34 schools (mostly, public schools) with the Devotional Program…That is over 8000 people praying and reading The Word of God in school…Daily!!! We are feeding a nutritious meal…daily…to over 1000 children…Thank You Jesus!!! In a world where there is a lot of negativity and craziness…God is STILL AT WORK!!! He is still opening doors. He is still guiding our steps. He is still healing and saving…Hallelujah!!!!

A couple of weeks ago we were in Saba working with another ministry to share The Love of Jesus with many. We were able to stop by and see the children in Pradera (many know this as Yesenia’s school)…what a joy to see happy and healthy children!!! All of the teachers and children at the school in Pradera are doing very well.

This past week we were with a Vision Team from Metro Tab in Chattanooga. During the week we were in 7 schools (El Barro, Los Llanos, Pedro Nufio, 2 different schools in the mountains (Bella Vista and Santos Esteban), Barcelona, and El Tablon) in 4 days. In the schools our team shared with the children about Respect…Respecting themselves, their friends, their families, respecting their teachers and schools, their world, and respecting God and churches. The team was amazing…they shared and then they illustrated their words in dramas to ensure that the children understood…and to entertain the children…lol. All in all, it was an awesome week. To top it off, at least 85 children accepted Jesus as their Savior…Glory, Glory, Glory!!! All of the teachers and children are doing well. (You can check out all the pictures and videos on our personal or ministry pages on facebook…there are many!!!)

August 8th is a BIG DAY for Faces of Dreams…WE WILL BE DRILLING A WELL!!! This will be a first for us, but we are BELIEVING that a GUSHER is in our Future!!! This well will change the lives of a Village. Los Llanos will have water…but it does not stop there. God has places some amazing people in our lives, so, we will be able to furnish many with water filters. Not only will water be available…but CLEAN WATER will be available. Go ahead and SHOUT…because GOD IS THAT GOOD!!!
Continue to be in prayer for us and for Honduras!!!

We love you all and pray for God’s Greatest Blessings to be yours!!!
PaMela

Good Day Dream Builders,

I pray that this New Day finds you all doing well. I want to send out a big…WELCOME TO FOD to all our new Dream Builders…if you recently joined with us in sponsoring one of our precious children, then Dream Builder is what you are. Together we will give these precious children the opportunity to Dream…something that they never thought possible. Together we can change lives…lives of these children and lives of their families. Once families see their lives changing for the better they start believing that “All things are Possible”. They can believe that they can be whatever they want to be whether that is a Doctor, Lawyer, Pastor, or a Farmer, Care Giver, or a Cook. They can Dream to be whatever their “Whatever” is…because of you!!! Thank you so very much for joining with us!!!

Be Blessed and Thank you for Being a Blessing,
PaMela
