THANK YOU FOR VISITING HARVEST MISSIONS' WEBSITE

Thank you for visiting our website! Harvest Missions is all about, yes, missions Harvest missions is a non-profit, 501(c)3 Missions organization. We're reaching into the nations of India and Honduras. Connie and I have been involved in missions for many years. It started in 1991 when I made my first missions trip to Mexico. In 1995 Connie and I were privileged to visit Canada to preach the gospel. My first trip to India was in 1997. That trip really changed my life, and secured the burden for missions for my life! I have been blessed to return to India 8 more times so far. In 2000 I was able to make my first of three trips to Guatemala in Central America.

In 2007 I visited Honduras for the first time. I recently made my 14th trip to Honduras. In 2019 I joined a team to the Dominican Republic for my first visit there, and visited the D.R. for the second time in 2021.

In India we work with Pastor Sam Gaddam. Pastor Sam received the mantle for the ministry in India following his father's promotion to glory in 2016. There are approximately 130 Pastors who Pastor 150 churches under Pastor Sam's leadership and care . The Bethel Bible School is located in Jadcherla, through which men and women are raised up, trained, and placed in ministry all around India. We help to furnish the materials to complete new church buildings as they are constructed in India.

In Honduras we work with Pastor Manfredy Zelaya of Tegucigalpa. Pastor Manfredy and I have been working together to preach the gospel in Honduras and to encourage the body of Christ there as well. We also offer child sponsorships of very needy children in some of the small villages and in Tegucigalpa. Pastor Manfredy and I met in the States in 2006 and have been working together since.

We invite you to prayerfully consider partnering with Harvest Missions to as we reach the nations of India and Honduras? We are convinced this missions ministry is good soil. God spoke to my heart in 2011 and said that He will cause Harvest Missions to flourish for His glory. This is happening! We are so grateful to Jesus, and give Him all the glory. For more information about sponsoring a child, or becoming a partner click the corresponding link on this page.

Finally, I ask you to pray consistently for Harvest Missions. We believe prayer is the key to our success: past, present, and future. Thank you!

In Christ,

A Vision Was Born!

Connie and I first met Pastor Manfredy Zelaya in a fast-food chicken restaurant in Athens, GA. It was in the Summer of 2006. Pastor Manfredy had been visiting some churches and friends in the States. Having visited Guatemala 3 times from 2000 to 2003, God had begun to develop in me a love for Central America. Our prearranged meeting was a blast, and the chicken was good too! We sat in the restaurant for over two hours talking about what Jesus had been doing in Pastor Manfredy's country of Honduras. It was because of this initial meeting that I began making plans to visit Pastor Manfredy in Honduras. I made my very first trip (of many) to Honduras in February of 2007. As a matter of fact, I went twice in 2007!

While I was in Honduras, we visited a small village approximately 3 hours from the city. It was during this initial visit to the village, and ministry to some precious, needy children that the vision to offer sponsorships was born in my heart and Pastor Manfredy's heart!

We started out simply making computer printed posters, with each child's photo, name, and some basic information about the child on each poster. We would put the posters on a table in the back of the sanctuary of our church. Then we started e-mailing folks offering them the opportunity to sponsor a child. I also talked it up with many folks person to person. We eventually began putting the sponsorship information on our church website. And then somewhere along about 2008 social media was introduced!

When we left that church in early 2010, the missions ministry went with us. We felt our calling was to missions alone, from that point forward, and to particular locations in Honduras and India. We work with particular Pastors such as Pastor Manfredy in Honduras, and Pastor Sam in India. Through these pastors I have come to know a host of pastors and folks in several nations.

Today Harvest Missions is kind of a culmination of years of ministry to the nations. We are a non-profit, 501c(3) organization established to take the gospel to those nations God has called us to embrace. Check out the video below showcasing some of what is provided for those children by faithful, loving believers here in the States. Each sponsorship provides several blessings for the child, but I want to showcase the following particularly!

Please prayerfully consider sponsoring a child through Harvest Missions! You won't regret it. Thanks so much!

Latest Outreach To The Children of Honduras

We recently conducted our monthly outreach to the children of Honduras, thanks to Pastors Manfredy and Alfonso, and a great team from Tegucigalpa! Through our monthly sponsors, Harvest Missions provides a monthly food care package to each sponsored child. In addition, school supplies are provided to each child for the entire school year. Also each child receives a special gift at Christmas time.

The monthly outreaches are not only for the sponsored children, but also for any of the children who come to the event! During each outreach the children have a special time of Bible study as well as some really fun games. A hot meal is provided for all of the children.

I want to personally thank all of our sponsors, and the vital team members who go each month to minister to all the children of the small village. Please pray for Harvest Missions and our efforts to reach many of the children of Honduras with the gospel and the love of Jesus Christ.

I Don't Like Being Alone, but......

As I make this post I am in the nation of Honduras. This trip is only a week long and I am already past the half-way point. Most of the time when I come to Honduras, I bring a small team from 2 to 5 people. However, this time I am by myself. I don't always like to be by myself, but every time I am, God speaks so much to me.

It's in these times I am alone I find it is so easy to draw near to Jesus! And He comes to me. It's like I'm in the secret place of the Most High (even in the physical sense) continuously. This proves that not only does Jesus lovingly and powerfully meet us in certain special places (like missions trips), but He is faithful to meet us whenever and wherever we make a place for Him.

I learned years ago that making a place for Him creates the secret place Psalm 91:1 describes. "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty." The word "shelter" from the Hebrew means a secret place or a hiding place. As Psalm 91 continues, we see that it transforms into a place of refuge and deliverance. Not only is the secret place a place of protection, it is also a place of renewal and refreshing. It is in the secret place that we followers of Jesus become BOLD as Lions!

Too many followers of Christ are too busy. But only in the secret place can we be empowered to be world-changers as we are called to be. Let me encourage you, make room for the Holy Spirit. Make a place for Him in your heart and in your life. You do it by going to the secret place alone, privately, and expecting to meet Him there. He won't let you down. He will change your life. That's what world-changers do!
