PICKENS — On May 16, PS Chiropractic will be hosting a community appreciation event to benefit a local family who is preparing to go into the mission field full time.

The Rev. Steven and Candace Day have been in ministry together for seven years at LIFEchurch in Dacusville. Last summer, after a mission trip to Honduras, both felt a strong burden for the churches and people of Honduras. Shortly after their return, an opportunity was presented to them to go into the mission field full time in the mountains of La Entrada, Honduras. With much prayer and advice from other missionaries, the decision was made to step out and begin preparation to move to Honduras. They will be living behind a church in La Entrada and working closely with that pastor and his staff to provide support and resources to pastors in surrounding communities through farming and evangelism. Candace will be working with the kids’ ministry and teaching dance classes. Both Steven and Candace will be teaching English classes within the church. A team from LIFEchurch will be going to La Entrada this June to build a home for the Day family.

In order to do this, they are seeking support from local churches and individuals. One-time gifts are graciously accepted, but they are really in need of monthly sponsors. They are scheduled to leave in January and will be making an initial commitment of one year. They will be traveling with their 2-year-old son, Colt, and their daughter, Ruby, who will be born this summer.
