Another Dump Day Is Coming

The fourth annual dump day is coming.  May 2nd is less than 3 weeks away.  That is when the 4th annual dump day will occur.  Our friend, Trey Morgan, will once again be hosting Dump Day so we can raise money to keep feeding people at the dump. 

The Tegucigalpa city dump is a hard place to have to earn a living.  And, it is sad for those who find themselves there.  They work hard day after day to eke out a living.  The dump is filthy place and the people that work there never feel really clean as they battle the buzzard and the cows.

The last few years we have not only fed people at least once weekly, but have made friends with many that work in the dump, with hopes of making an eternal difference in some.  We also buy milk for some of the young mothers that work in the dump as long as they don't bring those babies into the dump.  We  have helped with medical care for some.  We bought five baby beds for the daycare center that keeps children for free while the parents have to work in the dump.  And, we did the Jesus banquet in December where 1200 people were served a sit down dinner from one of the best places in Honduras.  We have helped some dump children get started in school.  And, last but not least, many Bibles were purchased and distributed in the dump. 

Please prayerfully consider donating on May 2 to Dump Day.  There will be more information to follow.
