WELCOME TO HBBC!

WELCOME TO HBBC!

It is no accident that God wants you to hear a very special word from Him today. It can be through the preaching of God’s word, a verse in the song or just a simple word of encouragement from another person in the service. God can speak in all kind of ways. We are all here for a special reason. If you are a first-time guest or a returning one, it is our honor to have you in the services. We hope you will join with us in Praise and Worship to our Lord. And if you are a first time guest, please be sure to complete an HBBC Connection Card and return your card to the Welcome Station. If you have a special prayer request, list it on the back of the card, or complete online here. There is a prayer box that you can drop your prayer requests in by the main door in the foyer. We also have a gift for all first time visitors!

HBBC IS A “FAMILY OF BROTHERS & SISTERS!”

How reassuring that we are never alone; God has sent us a host of other believers who can identify with the struggles and trials
of everyday life! That’s what “church” is all about! Isn’t it great to be a part of something so encouraging! If you are looking for a place to belong, HBBC is just for you! Come on over to our Family!
 
We have several elderly, shut-ins and members that need our care and support. A visit, phone call, or a card of encouragement would be appreciated.

Women of Purpose

 
In addition, we are still looking at the Bible study for our Ladies, but since the holidays have everyone so busy, the Bible study will be put on hold until the first of the year! If you are interested in attending a Bible study in the near future, please sign the sign-up sheet in the foyer. Pray that the right decision will be made.

PRAY FOR OUR MISSIONARY FAMILIES

Each month we will have a
 

MISSIONARY OF THE MONTH

 
We will get to know our missionaries so we can better pray for them and support them.
Our December Missionary family is Guillermo & Mayra Aguilar, missionaries to Nicaragua.
My wife and I both got saved at an early age but dedicated our lives to the Lord in our youth. God called us to serve Him and after getting married in 1989, we both decided to go and study the Word of God at the Word of Life Bible Institute in Argentina, a ministry which had a great impact in our lives.

In 1991 my wife and I were studying God’s Word at the WOL B.I., when we decided to serve God full time as missionaries. Then, He called us to serve in Costa Rica, our home country. For fourteen years the Lord allowed us to enjoy serving in that Country, with a team which was such a great blessing to us, people whom God put together for the great task that in that time we were able to accomplish by His Grace.

In 2002 the Lord began to lay a burden in our hearts for the country of Nicaragua, and an increasing desire to go and serve Him in that place. After years of praying, we arrived at Managua on October 30th 2007, to start the Word of Life Nicaragua ministry. For the next 14 years the Lord allowed us to serve in that beautiful Country, and we are deeply thankful to God for this wonderful experience, starting and developing a new ministry and a missionary team. During those years God gave us a wonderful group of young Nicaraguans who now conform the WOL Nicaragua staff.

At the end of 2018 God showed us it was the right time to start a leadership transition to a new ministry director in Nicaragua, Alex Schoures. He was one of our first disciples when we came to the Country. Him and his wife Erika were growing in leadership and responsibility, and it was a natural development for them. This allowed us to serve more on a regional role, and WOL assigned us to oversee the WOL teams in Panama and Costa Rica as well.

However, in December of 2020, God had a huge surprise for us. He opened the door through our leaders in WOL in the U.S., to take the position of Home Office Director for the International Ministries Division in Tampa, Florida. After much prayer and seeking advice, we realized this was the next step God had prepared for us in our missionary career. So, on March 15, 2021, my wife and I moved to Florida to start this new adventure.

Praise the Lord for this wonderful opportunity and please pray for us as we continue to help build our part of the Body of Christ as we serve our international team.
 
The ultimate goal of a church planting missionary is to produce indigenous missionaries who will evangelize and disciple others.
