Ministry
Joe and Tina have been asked to develop a Ministry Training School for the Diocese of Honduras in the city of La Ceiba by Bishop Lloyd Allen. This school will involve both the clergy and lay members of the Diocese and many of you. For the next 3 years, they will be living in Sumter, SC and will be making 3 to 4 extended trips to Honduras each year until their youngest daughter finishes high school.

Call
Joe and Tina have been involved in short-term mission trips since 1989 and have had an interest in missions since 1983. They began working with Bishop Allen in Tegucigalpa in 1994 and after hurricane Mitch hit Honduras in 1998, Joe and Charles Terry of St. Luke’s, Dallas, TX formed a network of congregations and individuals, called Lloyd’s Angels, to help Bishop Allen with his work at St. Mary’s and All Angels in Tegucigalpa. Tina developed a VBS curriculum each year since 1994 for the teams that have gone down to do a VBS for St. Mary’s School, El Hogar, and El Cruce. Tina also has an on going ministry to younger women.
