Hola Hermanos y Hermanas, that means "Hello Brothers and Sisters" in Spanish. We are all trying to get our tongues ready to roll some "R's" as we prepare ourselves for the missions trip in June. This blog has been created so we can keep our team up to date in the weeks before the trip and to keep our prayer warriors up to date while we are there. I hope to update the blog once a week before we travel, and every day while we are in Honduras. Oh yeah, that is where we are going. San Pedro Sula Honduras, where we will be teaming up with Hope Technical Vocational Institute (HTVI) to teach First Aid, Basic Hygiene and Water Safety. We will also be setting up a number of Water Purification Units!
HTVI is the culmination of a shared vision in 1998 by a national leader, resident missionary and project director. It is a Christian organization that works extensively through the local churches in Honduras and with LACC (Latin America Child Care). LACC is a children's ministry providing children in Honduras with a Christian education.
An overall objective was established for HTVI to provide vocational, technological, and academic training for Honduran children, young adults, and adults, to equip them with the needed skills to compete successfully in today's job market. These objectives were expanded to include humanitarian aid for the needy of Honduras as well as providing assistance in events of natural calamity.
All of us on the team are very excited to be a part of this mission, even more so, because we are doing it in the name of Jesus!!!
Please feel free to leave words of support for our team and check back regularly for updates!
Para la gloria de Dios
