The teachers training is over and they are excited to get started. I am surprised by their rapid ability to learn the basics in Sign Language. These wonderful people have come from various churches in the San Pedro area to volunteer their time each week. That is a praise to God and to them for their passion for Christ and His work to the Deaf.
The centers are looking great. The teachers have spent a lot of time setting up math, reading, science, writing, social studies, signing, and art centers. The setup of the school is designed for the children to come in the afternoon and the teachers sign up for specific centers that they are to be in charge of during the afternoons. The children will spend three hours a day going through the centers. Also, a big praise to the Lord for we have found a bus and driver that will pick up the students and bring them to school and take them home. The only cost to the Deaf Center is the fuel. This is a great blessing!
The adult program is coming together as well. We have been consistent with the Bible study on Sunday and we have moved the drama class to Sunday as well. The Leadership Bible study is on Thursday night. Sundays is more telling Bible stories because many have not heard the stories of the Bible and Thursdays are going into more depth. We are starting with what we are created for, which is worship, and discussing the multiple areas of prayer. I think a good start is to "Enter his Gates with Thanksgiving and His courts with Praise". (Keep in mind the leaders have already accepted Christ as their Savior.)
We do Thank God for His blessing and we thank God for you all for your love and support of this ministry. Keep us in your prayers.
We love and appreciate you all,
Paul, Kim and Family
Welcome to The Point of Impact
We are Paul and Kim Dyar and we are called to Missions in Honduras. Our mission is to connect ministry passion with real ministry need. The need is never ending, however laborers are few. We are working as the assistant to the national overseer of the Church of God, which embodies 1130 churches, 10 clinics, 1 orphanage, numerous feeding programs and has the largest social ministry of any denomination in Honduras. The social ministry includes the Deaf Comunity Center and caring for pastors and their children.
Kim and I have dedicated our time to making sure that ministry is accountable and connected. As the Projects Coordinator for Honduras, churches can know when they send funds through the World Missions and National office of Honduras that it makes the full impact and progress that is anticipated.
We are also engaged in consistent dialogue with the national overseer for better ways of leadership training and connectivity with local missionaries for greater effectiveness.
We have been in ministry, as a team, for 13 years and the last 5 years we have been pastoring The Haven in Maryville, Tennessee, which has been a tremendous joy. The Lord has given us 4 beautiful children who are becoming our ministry team. They are very eager to learn and they love to help others.
Our goal is to bring others to the point of impact. The Point of Impact is where Christ enters the heart of mankind and Jesus becomes the difference maker. We are only branches connected to the True Vine, Jesus. As we advance the Kingdom, we expect God to move in miraculous ways.
