Give Hope 2 Kids

The Storm

3/28/2016

We recently survived one of the biggest storms of the decade here at  GiveHope2Kids.    The river rose to crazy heights and washed out all three of our water systems, as well as the power lines and internet cables.   We're happy to share that everyone-- including our livestock-- is unharmed!

​On the right is the flooded river and on the left is the river after it returned to normal.

Our awesome team of guys were able to repair one of the water lines so we had enough water for the basics, like washing dishes and flushing toilets.   For drinking water we used rainwater and our Berkey filters.   Amazingly enough, our power was repaired in only 1 1/2 days. 

​While several houses flooded in Urraco, we believe that no one was seriously injured. The road however was another story!  It was badly damaged between here and La Ceiba.   The road at Rio Viejo (where our kids attend Instituto El Rey) was washed away, and the kids were out of school for a whole week!  (They weren't too concerned however and enjoyed basketball in the cancha and watching movies.)

​What was truly incredible though, was what happened to one of the village buses when it tried to ford a place where a little water normally flows over the road.   It's back wheels were washed right off the road!   Luckily, no one was harmed.

We are so grateful that everyone is safe and that we had enough food and water to make it through the week!

Celebrating 10 Years of Ministry!

3/10/2016

We're now celebrating  10 years of ministry in Honduras!

We  want to thank all of you who have joined with our mission throughout the years.   Thank you for  encouraging us to continue in what God has called us to.   Since our start, 31 young people have called GiveHope2Kids their home.    Several of these children were reintegrated into their families or adopted, but for the time that they needed us, we were there for them.    Right now we're  a home for  15 amazing kids and we're excited to help them grow  to adulthood here in the GH2K family.

To celebrate our 10 years of ministry, we've put together a magazine, thanking God for our past successes and looking to the future.   If you'd like to see the magazine online, you can scroll through the document below.   To download the full resolution document, you can click on the link at the bottom.

 Thanks for being a part of our lives and our story!
