Randy & Judy Lundrigan
- Location: Honduras, Central America
- Randy and Judy are in Honduras under the covering of The Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada. Born and raised in St. John’s Newfoundland, they were transferred by their employer to Ontario in 1982. There they raised their
children and were actively involved in many organizations, church programs and Leadership roles. In 2004 Randy and Judy spent three months on a fact-finding mission to Manos Extendidas (ME) in Tegucigalpa Honduras. It was here that the children stole their hearts and the needs pierced their spirits. They knew they had to do something. When they returned with a team from Northern Ontario PAOC churches, the burden became more intense. After much prayer and consideration they accepted the invitation from ME to work alongside of them for the first 4 years in full time missions work which began in January 2006. They are now launching an independent PAOC missions work to help provide hope and a future for these children with the possibility of a good solid opportunity for Biblical bilingual education and training. They will continue working and assisting with programs at the ME feeding centers, helping with training and impacting lives and affecting change for Christ (Jeremiah 29:11). On their own, they know they can do nothing, With God’s help, they know all things are possible. - Birthdays: Randy (September 30), Judy (October 23)

Guy & Jane Penney
- Location: Senegal, Africa
- Profile: Guy and Jane have already worked in Dakar, Senegal for a number of years. They have been involved with Dakar Academy, which is a mission
school in Senegal’s capital city. During their ministry there they have become involved with a number of ministries to this West African nation. One of the major avenues of ministry has been to the desperately needy children of that city. The Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada is beginning to look at the possibility of a much more intentional relationship with the national church of this nation. Guy and Jane will play an important role in setting our agenda for this relationship. Pray for them and for Senegal itself, since it is mostly a Muslim country with very little Gospel witness. - Birthdays: Guy (November 27), Jane (April 21), Sarah (October 4, 1990), Laura (April 1, 1992), Joshua (June 25, 1994), Micah (November 23, 2004)

Initiative.
