CHURCH PLANTING
The Assemblies of God in Honduras has begun a church planting initiative among the Garifuna people group along the north coast of the country. There are roughly 50 Garifuna villages where vibrant, spirit-filled churches are needed. Currently the Rix family is actively planting a church in the community of Bajamar, just outside of Puerto Cortes. They are seeing souls saved and discipled among the people there. Please pray for open doors into other Garifuna villages and for workers to be trained to pastor new church plants
PROFESSIONAL NETWORK
Within the major urban centers of Honduras, many university students and young professionals need to know Jesus as Lord and Savior. In early 2016, the national church asked for a ministry to be established to specifically reach out to this demographic. Professional Network was formed with this purpose in mind. Conferences, seminars, small groups, and bible studies, are going on periodically in Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula, in order to make an impact in lives of university students and young professionals.
GLOBAL UNIVERSITY
Recently, Zach became the national representative for Global University in Honduras. Currently, there are roughly 75 students throughout the country working on achieving their Bachelor of Arts degree in Bible and Theology. Pray that during this next term on the field, this important ministry will continue to grow in order for pastors to be trained and sent out.
CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
During the past 7 years, the Rix family has been able to oversee the construction of 4 different churches. These four churches are new church plants, in small villages, along the north coast of Honduras. Also, in 2023, the Rix’s completed the building of a school for deaf children in the city of San Pedro Sula. Around 50 deaf children attend the school each day. Many of them come from impoverished families, dangerous neighborhoods, and have few opportunities. However, now their future is much brighter because of the education they are able to receive at the school. Lastly, a remodeling project is underway right now at the Bible School in San Pedro Sula. There are eight buildings on campus, and each one needs to be completely renovated. This will allow the Rix’s to raise up the next generation of Honduran leaders, and pastors while multiplying their impact across the nation.
