Police
Chaplaincy Tom gives a special police officer's Bible to Assistant Police Commissioner Maurene Leslie. Thanks to Light for the Lost, all of the police officers of Belize received a police officers Bible. Many words of appreciation have been expressed for the Bibles. Currently Tom is in the process of providing training for officers from six different districts who will in turn teach Bible studies for fellow officers. International Correspondence Institute materials will be used for the Bible studies for the officers. |

Construction Projects Tom is not a builder, but there are special occasions that require construction. Some of the construction is just maintenance but it can include even the construction of buildings. These projects are made possible by concerned churches that provide the finances and sometimes the manpower for these special construction projects. |

Buena Vista Building Project Pastor Juan Bautista (John Baptist) and the Assembly of God congregation of Buena Vista village (near Hells Gate) are hard at work on their new church. The old building was too small and very poorly made. However, thanks to Pastor Rod Young and the generous donation from his congregation at Church of Hope in Corpus Christi, Texas, the new building will be much better. It will be larger and have a good foundation built high enough so that rain water will not run through the church every time it rains. The village consists of Guatemalan refugees who struggle to make a living in the hills of western Belize. Because there is no electricity available here, the congregation has worked to raise money for an electric generator to use for the service. |
