I’m in Honduras. I want to catch you all up on the last month of life. I finished the race, came home for 10 days and then left for another adventure. I’m leading a missions trip for college students in Honduras for the next 2 months. We’re just outside of Tegucigalpa living on a farm with our contact Tony, his wife and a few boys they’ve taken into their home.
I’m leading 6 students, all from ages 18-22, that have chosen to spend their summer exploring what Jesus has for them here. We’re working with Tony and his wife this summer. Tony spends his time loving street kids; pursuing them, taking them into his home, keeping up with their schooling, encouraging them and everything else fathering a fatherless generation entails. This ministry is beautiful to be a part of. More on that later.
In addition to spending time with the boys Tony has in his life, we’re teaching english, art and phys ed in a school in Los Pinos 4 days a week. Los Pinos is one of the roughest areas here, the families here are up against gangs, poverty, violence, and abuse. The little school is run for free by Professor Angela and exists for children who haven’t been able to attend the main schools in the area because of various challenges (poverty, behavior issues, neglect, etc.) Whoa, they are a beautiful bunch of children. I’ve only spent three days with them and I can’t handle how fabulous they are!
I need prayer. a whole lot of it. For divine wisdom in leading this group, for eyes to see who Jesus says they are, for insight, for love, for energy. The list is unending! Any prayer is needed and appreciated.
I’m also still fundraising for this trip, I have about 600 more to go before I’m where I need to be. If you would like to partner with me in this you can donate online through this page.
Thanks for your support! Thanks for reading this 🙂
