- 2009 Georgia Harkness Trip Reflections
-
- Administering God’s Grace
- When I accepted the invitation to accompany other Georgia Harkness Scholars to Honduras, I was grateful, but somewhat anxious about what I would encounter. My experience in Honduras revealed more to me than I ever expected. I not only returned from the experience with a stamp in my passport, my experience in Honduras became a turning point in how I viewed the church.
- Conversations with Honduran Clergywomen Transformative
- Writing this reflection paper has been a “sweet burden.” I have been moved and transformed by this experience. I expected to find poverty – and I did; I expected to find resilience - and I did; but I found more people who possessed richness in faith, love, and endurance.
- Great Things Happen When We Cross to the Other Side Under God’s Command
- As I write this theological reflection one month after returning from Honduras, I am amazed by the prevalence of water imagery – both physical and biblical. Honduras is a country rich in natural resources and yet water is in short supply, especially for those living in in impoverished areas, served by our new Honduran clergy and lay friends.
- Hope in a Barren Land
- Since I accepted my call into ministry, I have intentionally been focused on the spiritual and emotional well being of young people; specifically young women. During a recent trip to Honduras as a member of the Georgia Harkness Scholars Program, it became apparent to me that the lens through which I was focused needed to be expanded beyond the comfort of the United States borders.
- Most Experiences Lead to Further Questions
- Reflection on Georgia Harkness Immersion Trip to Honduras
- Most experiences in my life lead to further questions rather than answers. In fact, I am coming to believe that the pursuit of questions makes more sense than the pursuit of answers. Answers signify an end – to discussion, to the journey, to life. Questions lead us to exploration. Perhaps that is why Jesus so often responded to people with questions of his own.
- Only True Way to Accept Holy Communion is with Gratitude
- The Fuerzas Unidas church is located in one of the poorest neighborhoods of Tegucigalpa. It is one of several small United Methodist churches in the Honduras mission. Sandra Carcamo has been pastoring the Fuerzas Unidas (“United Forces”) congregation for about 10 years. She has received numerous death threats and the church has been broken into at least three times.
