I’m sure many of you have seen our posting on Facebook about our immigration status. For those that are not aware, we just got approved for our permanent residency. Before doing so, for the last 5 years, we have been updating our status yearly, but now, we are officially recognized permanent residents of Honduras.
You may ask, what are the benefits of becoming a permanent resident versus before. Well, honestly, I don’t know other than now having a residency card that expires in 5 years instead of 1 year. Maybe we get a discount on a Slurpee at the local convenience store, LOL.

What I can tell you, what it means to us, this is a long-term commitment for the hearts and lives in Honduras. There are missionaries that come for a short-term and that is fine; that is God’s direction on their lives. With us, we know, he has longer plans for us. We have a large vision for the future. It will take much time to complete and we are up for it. Also, I’m sure God will add more as time goes by. We love living here and being a part of the people’s lives; helping pastors make a greater impact upon those that they serve.
