After serving as missionaries for about four decades in Bolivia Lonnie & Ruth Hodge were eager to return for another term.  But Bolivian believers advised them to remain in the US at the present time because of the COVID situation.  In addition, the Hodges had their own health needs to deal with.  It became increasingly obvious that the Lord was pointing in another direction.

Having much to offer, the Lord led Lonnie & Ruth to a Hispanic church planting ministry in Appomattox, Virginia.  It’s not their beloved Bolivia, but at least it is their beloved Spanish!
