An important part of living here is learning to be flexible and be able to change plans at a moment's notice. Kim, our cook, is great at adapting to the needs of the organization. Sometimes that means cooking lunch over an open flame because the butane ran out.
Time flies! Saul is in Pre-K and doing homework. How does this happen so quickly?
It is a joy to watch him get excited to put his backpack on and head off to class each morning ❤️
Check out this awesome project some of our 11th graders did for English class. Love seeing them learning and creating ❤️
We’re at FUMC Allen this morning with our sponsorship board. Stop by the Missions Cafe to enjoy a cup of coffee and learn more about our sponsorship program!

We have a resident at the House of Hope that was born with spina bifida and requires the use of adult diapers and our supply is running critically low. We don't have anymore in the warehouse stateside to ship down and they are very, very expensive to purchase here in Honduras. We are looking for donations of medium and large depends to send on the next container. If you'd like to contribute funds, donations can be made through our website with a memo "depends".
Update! Last July, Yair, joined the House of Hope family at 6 months old and weighing in at 6 pounds. The picture on the left shows him in a preemie diaper that is swallowing him up. Now, almost 8 months later, Yair is chubby and healthy. He still hasn't started crawling but loves cruising around the house in his walker. Thank you everyone for the prayers and encouragement while we worked so hard to nurse this sweetie back to life.

First day of 7th grade!! These three are making the big transition to middle school 💜 Share your best advice for these youth as they enter this new stage.
Here's to a wonderful start to the school year for all students and educators!
It’s a beautiful sunny day here in Puerto Lempira.
Post your (icy) view today in the comments and tell us how you're doing!
Last week we had our FIRST annual parent meeting! The school year is about to kick off in Honduras; it's an exciting time of year filled with anticipation.
Over the past six years we have worked hard on building relationships with the children and their families. We were excited to host our first ever parent meeting to kick off the year. Important conversations were had about how to best help our residents succeed. After the nitty gritty parts like rules, expectations, and privileges we were able to share a meal together.
While Christmas is over, we are still collecting Christmas gifts for the residents of the House of Hope. A link to an Amazon wishlist is in the comments. We are shipping a container in the coming days, please have items delivered by the 13th of January!

Today was the last day of school; we celebrated with pizzas, cokes, s'mores and an outdoor movie! It was a great night to close out the school year.
October was a busy, happening month here at the House of Hope! If you want to read all about it, send us your email.
On Saturday, Carla, Josue, and Maria Antonia took the entrance exam for 7th grade at Abundant Life Institute! How is it possible that they'll be headed off to middle school in February?
Jeyzon (11) created a kite out of an trash bag, sticks, and string. It flies better than any kites we've had. We're so impressed!
The container arrived yesterday! Within minutes of it's arrival we were unloading and getting the Nourishment Program office stocked. As soon as we got Kids Against Hunger meals into the office, our program administrator was distributing meals to program participants that had been awaiting it's arrival.
It took us 3.5 hours with the help of all of our teens and pre-teens to unload the entire container. We are grateful to Dr. Marianne for bringing us two additional helpers about half way through, they gave us the an additional energy boost that we desperately needed on a very humid day.
Today was sunny and hot so we decided to indulge in some ice cream cones! A special little treat did us all good as our bodies recover from our workout yesterday.
The Katrina Engle Memorial Nutrition Program ran out of Kids Against Hunger meals on Friday. The boat pulled into port yesterday and we’ll be receiving our container with over 1,100 boxes of meals in a couple hours. 🎉🎉
In September, Glaisy, Marisol, and Milenny (not pictured) took the entrance exam for the public Honduran university. We expect to have the test scores towards the end of October. Whatever the result of the exams, we are excited about the future for each of these three young women!
One of the first big projects that Piter when he joined the House of Hope was to get our outdoor wood burning stove up and running. It was in a state of disrepair and while we were making it work, it wasn't the safest. Today, we are cooking beans on our repaired, beautiful, and safe fugón.
We'd like to introduce you to Piter! Piter joined the House of Hope in September as our new Operations Supervisor. We are very excited to have him on our team, please help us in welcoming him.

Welcome to Saturday Snapshots, meet Marisol! Marisol is finishing up her last year of high school; next year she will be studying in university in Tegucigalpa. She has a laid back, easy going personality and can get along with anyone. An ideal meal for her would be a nice big plate of fried chicken with pico de gallo and rice followed up with ice cream or chocolate. She enjoys many genres of movies (super heroes, action, animated, etc). In her free time, Marisol enjoys listening to music, drawing, and reading her Bible. Her favorite class is art and she hopes to be an artist in the future. She’d also like to travel to Colombia and Brazil.
Marisol is already sponsored but if you are interested in sponsoring a great kid, send us a message. If you’re interested but need more information, just let us know, we’d love to chat with you!

Day of the Child! Our local firefighters brought 3 bounce houses that all kids (ages 2-19) enjoyed. The Honduran Military brought a piñata, lunch, cake, sodas, and huge candy bags for everyone! For our part, we gave out presents and didn’t even get to do our piñata and goody bags because everyone was already so sugared up 😂. It was a great day celebrating our top favorite 30 kids ❤️❤️
It’s Day of the Child here in Honduras, we’re getting ready to go live to share our celebration with you!
Happy 19th Birthday, Marisol!
