Honduras

Ciudad Espana is home to one of the newest Methodist congregations in Honduras. A very large and beautiful church building was funded by Church of the Resurrection and aided in construction by scores of Resurrection mission teams over a five-year period.

The Church of the Risen Christ was dedicated in March 2008. Teams will help lay leaders grow the congregation and find new ways to carry the Gospel to the community through the introduction of Alpha and Sunday school curriculum programs as well as work with church leadership to keep these programs sustainable.

Ministry Development

Teams that travel to Ciudad Espana in 2010 will participate in programs and activities that may include:

  • Education/training – equip lay leaders to envision, plan and organize ministry activities for children and adults.  There will be a strong emphasis on recently introduced Sunday school curriculum that will require support throughout the churches in the Methodist community.
  • Help sustain the recently implemented Alpha course that was initiated in all 14 mission communities.
  • Light Construction – do small projects at the church, such as painting, clean-up/beautification and landscaping.
  • The October team will be a combined Medical/Ministry Development team.  A new vision program will be implemented to provide eyeglasses for local residents.  Non-medical volunteers will be trained to use the equipment to administer the eye exams. 

Medical Missions

Medical outreach teams work in a clinic staffed by government healthcare professionals triaging sick patients, distributing medications/vitamins and performing fluoride treatments. Health education classes are also provided. Physicians, dentists, nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals are essential; but non-medical team members are also needed to help throughout the week.
