June Honduras Mission Trip

On June 4^th, a Mission Team with members from Southwood and five other churches will be traveling to Honduras for a week. The team’s mission is dental/medical in nature. Our team consists of two dentists, a Nurse Practitioner, a nurse and twelve others who are eager to serve in anyway God leads them.

Our team will spend a day in LaCeibeta, home of our sister church, to:

• Conduct a dental/medical clinic
• Conduct Bible School for the children
• Teach proper tooth brushing techniques with the help of our Dental Dog “Colgate”
• Serve a dinner to the members of the church
• Share in worship with our sister church members

We will then travel to a different village each day for the remaining four days to conduct dental/medical clinics and Bible school in each village. For many of these villages, our dental/medical team will be their only opportunity for dental/health care for a year or more.

For over half of our team of 16, this will be their first trip to Honduras. It is great to see so many new people wanting to join in our passion for mission in Honduras. We all look forward to using our God-given talents, many talents we likely don’t even know we have yet.

Sign up to be a prayer partner for a specific person at the Southwood Serves Wall or commit to pray for the entire team before and during their trip.  Knowing that people at home are praying for the volunteers strengthens and encourages them.

It's very heartwarming to see folks like you travel to the far corners of the world to give vital medical and dental health to the financially challenged. I had to opportunity to go on an outreach project in Timor Leste, one of the poorest countries in the world. It was an experience that I will never forget. The smiles of the kids were enough reward for a hard day's work
