Good Monday morning to you all!
We have been back a couple of weeks. Now, and It takes me a little while to adjust, although I’m used to going back-and-forth between cultures I take some time after we get back to refocus.

We had the most excellent trip, a loooong one, but excellent!
I believe at last count we had over 70 children. come forward to pray.
Hallelujah, praise to the Lord God Almighty!

We were able to hand out all of the Bibles that we had promised and we handed out over 300 Sunday school studies for children.

We were able to do multiple teachers trainings as well, and have a request for more teachers trainings in the coming year.
Praise the Lord.
We can’t do it without you guys!
The Lord, and you all directly make this possible through your hard work and sacrifice, you’re willingness to send us to the field and your trust.
We thank you for that.
We thank the Lord God Almighty for his provision and hand up on all of us as we continue to do as he has asked, and to go onto all the world.

Love The Indiana Crowders.

Good afternoon,

We are heading back!
God met our funding need and we were able to stay an additional two weeks, thank you so much!
Praise the Lord.
Our trip has gone well, we have been able to pass out all of our bibles & Sunday school materials to the pastors who needed them.
Our trip back will take a detour so dad can do a final kids meeting in Mexico.
Thank you for the prayers and financial support,it makes a vast difference for us and those that we serve.

Hello, hello!

We are in our 4th week here in Honduras and our teacher trainings are going really well!
We have had over 70 kids in our services and many have come forward to receive Christ as their savior & a wonderful lady came forward in one of our meetings & rededicate her life to the Lord! Amen, amen!

We would love to stay on until mid September, there is so much more that we can do & had planned however with our initial budget short fall of $2,000.00 & the loss of one of our brand new tires on the van due to ROUGH roads 😩 it means we will have to cut our trip short by two weeks.
It’s our sincere desire to continue serving so will you pray with us that God in his wisdom will supply according to his riches. Amen.

We will be back in Olancho this coming week, we will have a couple of teachers training & kids service.

It’s an 8 hour drive to Olancho with beautiful scenery. Please enjoy the pictures!
Love, The Indiana Crowders!

We are praying with you Colombia!
How hard it is to see the earthquakes in diverse places but this just lights our fire even more!
Praise God in the highest as we do what you have sent us to do.
We are in the state of Olancho for a couple of weeks working with a fantastic man of God and his wife as we travel and do teacher trainings & kids services.
Praise the Lord!
I think you can see the top of mamas head on the right in the back beside Indiana Dad 🤣
Thank you all for your prayers of protection and provision.

Behold the cacao pod!
You can eat the fruit and dry the cacao beans to make chocolate! Yummmm.
We are on our way to San Pedro to do paperwork. Lord please be with us and show great favor Amen.
Love the Indiana Crowders.

We have arrived!
Along the way we slept in the valley of the shadow of death …..AKA a smoking volcano in Guatemala,named Volcano Santiaguito.
We were entertained by all of the lighting it produces!
We were also able to fellowship with fellow missionaries and hand out Sunday school materials we didn’t know they needed, God did,So he made a way!
The following videos and pictures of the active volcano we were close to.
On to Olancho for our teacher conferences and Bible blessings.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
Love The Indiana Crowders.

We are half way through our trip down to Honduras & were able to spend some time with wonderful friends we met through fellow Missionaries Randy & Linda Travis.
We have donated a set of our Sunday school studies to a church that we work with here in Mexico and they will be using them in their local church school!
Praise the Lord.
All the bottom scraping our van has done on the trip down is now worth it! 🤣
We will definitely be purchasing a truck/van that is higher off the ground 😬
On to our next stop!
Love,
The Indiana Crowders.

Good Morning!
We hope you have a blessed Sunday.

As we head into summer we are packing up our bibles and Sunday school materials for our trip
down to Honduras, the van is getting full and we haven't even left yet 🤣
Our date for departure has been fluid so that I have been able to care for Roman my grandbaby while his mom finishes up welding school.
We thank you for your patience since our date has changed several times!

Our departure, date as of now is the 6th of July!
Praise the lord.
I am ready to go!
Our van is under repair by my husband, he is a genius when it comes to that & I thank God for a hard-working, loving man.

We have several teachers trainings scheduled across Honduras and my Visa paperwork should be finished up making a way for me to be able to move down permanently when God says go, and I tell you its about time!

It's an honor to serve alongside you in this cause for Chirst, thank you for your trust!

The Indiana Crowders. ❤️
