Full Description:
You can make a difference in Jesus name as you serve the poorest of the poor in this needy nation, one of the most impoverished in the Western Hemisphere. Approximately 53% of the population lives below the poverty line. STEM teams offer basic medical help, put on children’s programs and visit nursing homes and an AIDS hospice. They also help with construction projects at community buildings, pouring concrete, painting, and landscaping. Most of all, they seek to share the love of Jesus, who has a special love for the poor.
This is an opening to create and send your own team. With a team of 12 or more people you can form your own team and pick your own dates. We will work with you to customize your trip, matching the gifts and skills of your team with the needs in Honduras.
