Project Dedication at Los Hornos School


Sunday the visiting mission team was treated with a lunch at the Los Hornos school, for dedication of their new facility with six bathrooms and two showers for the students. This was built with the help of Foundation funds.

We were greeted with the sounds of a three-man marimba band as we drove up the hill to the school. The director of the school and one of his teachers greeted us with a wonderful lunch and heartfelt expressions of thanks for what they have been able to do with our help.

We even had a ribbon cutting ceremony performed by Rene Herezano, President of the MPA Ministry that had proposed and overseen the project, and by Michael Norton, President of the Honduras Foundation.
Here you see team members Brittany, Kathy, and Shirley discussing the new facility with the director of Los Hornos school, relying on our capable translator Daniel for help. The culmination of the dedication was awarding of certificates of appreciation to Pastor Jerezano and to each of the team members, and handshakes all around from the school director and his teacher.
