His Hands for Honduras 

We are a sponsorship program that pairs sponsors, people like you, with children and seniors in need in Honduras.  When a child or senior is sponsored for $32 per month through His Hands for Honduras, the sponsorship program receives:

Children:

• school fees
• uniforms
• educational materials
• food

Seniors:

• nutritious food 
• hope and love for their future

His Hands for Honduras works alongside our Honduran partners, Pastor Yovani Velasquez and his wife, Doris, of Iglesia Comunidad de Gracia in Balibrea, as well as Pastors Gregorio and Francisca, Pastors Mario and Vilma, Pastors Julio and Angela, and Pastors Jorge and Jessica, who are leading Cristo Centro churches in northern Honduras.  All of these pastors are reaching out into their communities to bring help and hope to both the children and the seniors in their community through the love of Jesus Christ. This is done to fulfill our goal as a ministry, which is:

"to support and encourage the work of our brothers and sisters in Christ in the country of Honduras and to support the ministries of their churches, giving special emphasis to helping with children's and seniors' ministries (in supporting children to enable them to attend school and to help seniors get the food they need).  We strive to demonstrate the love of Christ through works of service to these churches as well as to other Christian missions and missionaries in the country of Honduras as we have opportunity - to be God's "hands and feet" and His servants to His children in Honduras."

100% of your sponsorship payment goes toward meeting the needs of the children and the seniors - none of it goes toward the administrative expenses of this program here in the United States.  

Why Honduras? Why should we help? 

"He shall deliver the needy when he cries; the poor also and him that has no helper.  He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.”  Psalm 72: 12-13

According to the World Food Program, one-third of the population in Honduras makes less than one dollar a day.  It is one of the most vulnerable countries to natural disasters in the world and extreme weather conditions frequently contribute to the problem of food insecurity.  Hurricanes and prolonged heavy rains ruin crops and can prevent access to food, which can lead to chronic malnutrition and a stunting rate of 34 percent.

Children who do not get the recommended calorie intake compensate for the lack of energy by slowing down mental and physical activities.  A hungry child cannot concentrate or take initiative and loses all desire to play and/or study.  Hunger also weakens the immune system and makes hungry children especially vulnerable and they become too weak to fight off disease.  They may die from common infections like measles or diarrhea.  A third of all deaths in children under the age of five in developing countries are linked to undernutrition.

His Hands for Honduras was formed in 2012 when a partnership was formed with Cristo Centro churches in northern Honduras.  These partnerships were facilitated by believers from Grace Point Church in San Diego, California, to help bring hope to the children and seniors of Honduras through sponsorship. Then in 2021, another partnership was formed with Iglesia Comunidad de Gracia in Balibrea.

For a monthly fee of just $32.00 you can sponsor a needy Honduran child or senior. Your sponsorship will help feed the children and send them to school.  For the seniors it will provide them with food through monthly food distributions. All of this is done through the love of Jesus Christ and with the goal of improving their lives.
