"Restore All Things in Christ"

We continue to support Consolacion, a small mountain village just west of Lepaera in the Department of Lempira in Honduras.  Recently Dr. Rene Fialos referred to our mission as "un Union de Amor".  How true that is - a union of love!  What a beautiful name for a beautiful, grace-filled adventure.  This year we hope to:

• Help them protect and renovate their Chapel to preserve it for years more in service to our Lord and the faithful,
• Send a second year's supply of school supplies to their school,
• Followup on the construction of the Kindergarten and help with some last touches including furniture, landscaping and playground equipment, and
• Assess the viability of providing some level of medical and nutritional support.
• Assess options for a clean-water project

This year, as the community celebrates its new Patron Saint, St. Thomas the Apostle, we will process into the village with St. Thomas himself.  Thanks to generous donations from St. Thomas the Apostle here in Coeur d'Alene, a 3 foot tall statue matching one purchased for their church, will arrive in Consolacion July 3rd (St. Thomas' Feast Day).
