Our March 2017 Trip
Welcome to our 2017 Mission Trip homepage! We are thankful for our
volunteers, our prayer partners, and the people who donated items
and money to make this trip possible. Our trip this year was
February 28 - March 7, 2017. We delivered donated items,
painted the dining hall and kitchen, installed a weather
station, volunteered in the school, fixed the lights and took the
girls on a field trip to Paraiso Beach in Omoa. We welcomed everything
GOD led us to do. Most importantly, we worked with all the girls
in the home to give them confidence, hope, and reassurance that
they are competent, smart, beautiful, lovable people.
Other highlights included:
- Visits from Paola, Maribel, Maricruz, Raquel, and Ana
- Touring the new transition apartments
- Supporting the Holy Family Bilingual School Senior Class by taking our group and 40 girls to the Senior Class' fund raiser at Pizza Hut
- Donating a garbage disposal and an Adirondack chair for the new transition apartments
- Donating a popcorn machine and 3 WhirlyPop stovetop poppers
- Watching movies on the cancha
- Throwing a birthday party
- Riding on the bus taking the girls to school every morning
- Taking a group of the younger girls swimming at the hospitality
house
