Urgent Need For Honduras

We are constructing two ministry centers in two super-poor communities in La Ceiba, Honduras. On our properties we are building two high schools, two medical clinics, two churches, a covered soccer field, a theological seminary and a center for homeless kids.

We are asking you to prayerfully consider giving a one-time financial gift to help us meet the construction costs. Here are two exciting reasons why you should consider giving now:

1) For a limited time a generous supporter has agreed to match every gift received $1 for $1. If you donate $100 we will receive $200.

2) Any financial gift you give is tax-deductible.

Honduras has the 2nd poorest economy in Latin America. The average Honduran makes only $3,000 a year and the unemployment rate is above 30%. These ministry centers will greatly address the physical and spiritual needs of this 250,000 person city.

Vision Trip To Honduras

Did you ever wonder what our ministry in Honduras was like? Have you or your church ever considered getting more involved? Now is the time. In conjunction with MTW, our mission-sending agency, we are organizing a Vision Trip to Honduras so others can see and learn about God’s work here in La Ceiba.

April 21-27, 2012 we are inviting 20 people to come down to Honduras and spend time with our eight-person mission team. Participants will be introduced to the missionaries and Honduran nationals who make this work possible. We will provide tours of the community and explanations of our work and the ministry we lead.

Participants will discover more about our StreetChild ministry, Door of Hope, medical ministry, church planting and short-term mission trips. This trip will help expose you to the amazing work being done here and give you or your church the information you need to get further involved.

Your lodging, meals and ground transportation will all be arranged for you. If you wish to learn how you or your church can attend this Vision Trip to Honduras click HERE.

Erin Sharing Our Work In California

Erin has been in California for a week sharing what God is doing in Honduras. She was able to talk to many groups and individuals in the past week.

Erin at Valley SpringsLast Sunday Erin attended the two morning services at Valley Springs Presbyterian Church in Roseville, California. During each service Erin went up front with Pastor David George and shared about our ministry and provided several important prayer needs. After both services Erin talked with dozens of interested individuals. Following second service a few friends joined Erin for lunch and talked more. Valley Springs has been a wonderful supporter of our work in Honduras. We look forward to hosting them for a short-term mission trip in Honduras this coming summer.

Erin at Soaring OaksThis past weekend Erin was one of the speakers at the first ever mission conference hosted by Soaring Oaks Presbyterian Church in Elk Grove, California. Erin spoke on Friday and Saturday. She hosted a table and distributed educational information about our work. In the kids class Erin showed a 10-minute video about our work produced by our daughter Madison. It was a great mission conference. Soaring Oaks will join us this summer for their second mission trip to Honduras.

It is always a joy to share with others about our work in Honduras. However, Erin returns to Honduras on Monday and we are looking forward to spending time together.
