Support Volunteers' Mission to Honduras

This May, a group of 15 excited volunteers all from different parishes , have an opportunity to travel to Honduras and work with locals, making building improvements, helping at a local clinic, and fellowshipping with a wonderful group of kids. All this has been made possible by Father Andrew and the mission's Spiritual Director, Father Eugene, who has helped with the mission before. I mentioned my “bucket list” in several different conversations and it continued to only be a dream. After my fight with cancer, I told myself I wouldn't make excuses anymore, and with the encouragement of a mission priest who visited our community this pass summer Father Benjamin from Uganda, Africa, Encouraged me to put plans in motion and make it a reality.

I began to speak of my excitement with fellow nurses at work, and soon two of my colleagues decided to be part of this wonderful project.
