Project # 1: Avance Misionero Bible Institute Dormitories, Comayagua, Honduras
|
Team Members needed: approximately 10-12 people depending on 1 or 2 week commitment.
The Avance Misionero Bible Institute has been serving students and missionaries from all over Honduras. Currently there are approximately 25 students that meet for classes in the Christian School in Comayagua. Missionary Nehemias Chavarria and his wife Fanny have been teaching there monthly. Students come once a month for several days to learn theology and then return to their homes with homework. Because of the distance many travel, lodging expenses can be a huge burden for many of them. Hands in Mission will be constructing a dormitory above the dining hall of the Christian School to house these students when they attend their classes.

Project
# 2: Refugee Community Hall, Comayagua Honduras
|
Currently under construction by Hands in Mission
|
Team
Members needed: approximately 12-15 people depending
on 1 or 2 week commitment.
The Refugee Community in Comayagua holds a special
place in the hearts of Hands in Mission members.
Hands in Mission has been working diligently
in this community for several years building
homes and a church. In addition, HIM has established
lifelong relationships with the people of this
community by home church support as well as
individual support. Pastor Cledia, who pastors
the church would like to expand the ministry
of the Iglesia Avance Misionero by providing
a food program to the children of the community
with the future possibility of education classes
and vocational classes to the parents of the
community. Currently, members of the church
are already providing sewing and barbering classes
to the community there. Hands in Mission will
be constructing a large community hall adjacent
to the current Sunday School room. |
Pending Projects: Parsonage, LaPaz Honduras
|
Team Members needed: approximately 10-12 people depending on 1 or 2 week commitment.
This community is approximately 20 miles outside of Comayagua. HIM visited this community in February 2005, when HIM built Sunday School rooms for the Iglesia Avance Misionero there. Oswaldo Ulloa, the pastor of this church, who currently lives in Comayagua and has to commute to LaPaz every week, has been finding it difficult to invest quality time in the congregation there. In order for his ministry to be more effective, Hands in Mission is considering the construction of a parsonage for Pastor Oswaldo and his family on the church property.
