Seeking Volunteers to Assist with Oversight of St Mark’s Honduras Mission Activities           

Your opinions would be helpful in considering issues relevant to the support of Manos de Dios activities and our “Breakfast for Schoolchildren” mission in Honduras. Manos activities might include presentations at St Mark’s and planning for their annual mission trips in January. Breakfast program issues typically concern requests for help with facilities improvements at Ojo de Agua. Your help would provide broader St Mark’s input to the 2 or 3 mission travelers that currently the first responders to these questions. We would expect to meet no more frequently than once a quarter for an hour or two. There are no expectations that participants will become mission travelers but there would be no better way for you to be informed of mission trip plans should you choose to participate. Please contact Dean Lalich at (512) 757-5307 or dlalich@grandecom.net if you are willing to help.

College Students/Young Adults - Join the Manos de Dios team on our next mission trip to Honduras in 2025. Travel awards are now available for our 2 – 9 January mission trip. For more information contact Dean Lalich at dlalich@grandecom.net or Patricia Perea at ManosHonduras@gmail.com. Applications are now being accepted. Visit our Honduras Mission page for more information!
