This home,
along the road to Sulaco, is built of mud and sticks. Scraps of tin and
branches have been used to make the roof. The woman who lives in this home
sells sticks for firewood so she can buy a little food.
Children pictured above suffer from hunger and malnutrition. All
mission teams hand out medicines, soaps, clothes, toothpaste, and new shoes that
were donated from Mission Honduras LeMars. MHL also purchases FJO food and
Plumpy Nut for these children and their families.
All of their lives, the people of
Montaņa de
la Flor have had to carry water from streams to their homes. In the spring of
2010, MHL teamed up with Rotary to provide 3 villages with the materials to
supply water to each of their homes. For the first time, the family above is
collecting water from the spigot outside their home to be used for drinking and
cooking.
The picture above
right shows the Clinica Asistencial La Caridad, built by Mission Honduras LeMars funds.
Pictured left is the clinic annex. The clinic is under the control of the Ministry of Health in Honduras.

Be a life long or
