New Congregation at Poncaya

A new congregation of the church of Christ is starting in La Colonia de Poncaya, Olancho, Honduras. José Pagoada, Marlon Molina and Davíd and Suyapa Chacón from Olancho were joined by Frank Hodges from Naples, TX to start visiting households in this thriving community far distant from Catacamas, but still in Olancho. Fifteen people from Catacamas went on the first Monday, the 12th of January. That first Monday devotional had 12 people from the community.

The MPRC was able to supply these fine workers for the Lord with tracts and New Testaments to give to their new contacts in this town. Five families have also received full Bibles. You can see three of the families in the photo above.
