A group of 10 people will be in Azacualpa, Honduras on January 11 - January 19. They will be working through and staying at an orphanage Ministies of Faith & New Life. The mission of this trip is to build a house for Victoria,an elderly woman with poor health conditions, that is living in even worse housing conditions. The team will work to build her a new home in a week. Besides that, the team will also be doing activities with the children of the orphanage in the evenings.

Thoughts From Dave O'Byrne
Today is our last full day here. Yesterday we finished our work on Victorias house. Our bodies are tired and sore, but our hears are full from the blessings we recieved from God through the gratitude of Victoria and many others. The neighborhood where Victorias house is located is called Nazareth. It reminded me of John 1:46 where Nathaniael says, "Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?" That's what the response of many people here would be of that neighborhood. The "Nazareth" in Azacualpa isn't the home of the Savior of the world, but it is the home of many people who love the Savior of the world. In spite of what we see as poverty, they have found treasure worth more then diamonds and gold.
