“The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him and I am helped.”
Psalm 28:7



This Month:

Thank you Jeff Andler (JAM), for a wonderful week of construction, an experienced medical team that saw 700 patients in four days, and those who went door to door sharing the love of Christ. There were 232 professions of faith. We thank the Lord for using 22 people who gave of themselves to make a major impact in Honduras for Christ.

Hannah Jackson, who is serving with us for four months as an intern, has been such a blessing to everyone and she continues to grow each day. Thank you Lord for Pamela and Hans who are the best employees one can ask for. Thank you to all of you who gave towards Hans’ surgery and we will let you know the date it is rescheduled. Continue to keep him in your prayers.


We need your support to visit with us in Honduras and be a part of this team, to financially support our efforts and pray for us. If you are interested in learning more about this effort, please write us at openeyes2ca@comcast.net.

The Open Eyes website (Openeyes.org) and IDonate was down for a few days, but is now back up and running.  We are very sorry for the inconvenience.
Our Leadership classes begin this month. The first one is at the National University with 80 students, then 120 Police Recruits and the Air Force students. What an honor to reach all of these young people through Leadership and the gospel.

 

“For our eyes will no longer be focused on what is most comfortable to us; instead, our lives will be fixed on what is most glorifying to God, and in Him we will find a far greater reward than anything our culture can ever offer us". (David Platt). AMEN.
 

Urgent need :
Hans needs repair of his right thumb by a plastic surgeon.  He cut it with a knife a few weeks ago and it was repaired in a doctor's office in Comayagua.  It has become infected and he can not use it. The only other thing that can be done is an operation by a plastic surgeon in San Pedro Sula. The cost will be $3500.00 plus the cost of traveling several times after the surgery. It is scheduled for August 10th.

Many of you have worked with Hans in Open Eyes Ministries and if you would like to give an offering toward
his surgery, please send your love offering to OEM, PO BOX 52104, Knoxville, TN. 37950. If you do not feel led to give, please keep him and all of OEM in your prayers.


After accepting  Christ this wonderful lady gave us all mangos. Such a special  treat
