Thank You, Donors!

Hailey and I want to thank everyone who has supported us financially during our time in Honduras. Your support has made it possible for us to do many things – from purchasing diapers for Micah to purchasing medicine for people who could not have afforded it otherwise. We want you all to know that your financial support truly is making a difference in the lives of people in Honduras. Here are a few of the ways that we have been able to use the donations:

-To purchase medicine for a student who needs monthly shots (Hailey administers the shots)
-To purchase eyeglasses for a couple of the students. One of the students was getting headaches every class from trying to read the blackboard.
-To pay for a doctor’s visit and medicine for our cook who has a very bad bacterial infection in her ear
-To purchase a guitar to teach new songs to the students and to lead worship on Sundays
-To pay for many of our monthly necessities (toiletries, diapers, shoes for the rainy season, etc.)
-To purchase a cell phone for a student who was unable to communicate with her family
-To pay for gasoline for Joseph’s motorcycle for regular trips into town for groceries, medicine, toiletries, etc. for the students
-To purchase a cake for Mother’s Day for several of the mothers who live near us
-To pay for an upcoming trip out of the country to renew our visas
-To pay for international health insurance

While many of these things may seem trivial as you read them, we cannot express the gratitude of the people who have received help (in one way or another) from your financial support. Not only are we extremely grateful, many Hondurans are grateful as well.

We will continue to be wise stewards of your financial support and will continue to use it to help other people as often as we are able. Thank you!
