I'm a missionary serving the Lord in Honduras. I originally moved to here in the summer of 2008 until 2011. After a year away I'm back at Proyecto Alcance aka - Reach Out Orphanage. This is a journal of my life and views here in Honduras.

Where am I?

For those of you wondering, let me tell you where I am. I'm living at Proyecto Alcance, Reach Out Orphanage Inc., in La Masica, Honduras. La Masica is on the northern coast of Honduras, it lies halfway between the cities of Tela, to the west, and La Ceiba, to the east. We about ten miles south of the coastline and a little over a mile north of the "Sierra de Nombre de Dios" mountains, in english... "Name of God Mountain Range." Proyecto Alcance (PA) is a nonprofit christian organization run by David and Dialis Romaro. Our main project is an childrens' orphanage of about 19 kids. We also have our own private christian school in the town of San Juan Pueblo, about 8 miles to the west of La Masica, with grades kindergarten - 3rd currently, with plans to expand up to 6th grade at the start of the next year in February. We also have two churches, one is in La Masica, inside the main project, build for the kids, but we also serve the community. Our other church is located about a half mile from our school in San Juan Pueblo (SJP), to serve the people of SJP. Behind of church in SJP, we have a colony where we bought a large piece of land and divided it into lots. We have given all the lots away to extremely poor families and have raised funds to help some of them build of home on their land. In our colony and else where in the two communities we serve in, PA has bought and given away over 41 lots. We also have a sponorship program for the kids that attend our two churches and the kids in our orphanage.

As for me, my job is one of many. Here is list of jobs that I preform.... bus driver to/from church and school in San Juan, construction helper @ school, calculate monthly finances, substitute teach the english for the kids, teach english everyday to the teachers during student breaks, personal assistant to Dialis, preach, revitalize the youth service in our San Juan church, and many other small jobs, including my chores at the project.

I've been here at Proyecto Alcance since June '08 and I have written a few blogs early on, but my jump drive was stolen and I thought I lost them. But I was able to fins some of them. So some of these early blogs were written early on.

I want to take this time to thank everyone who has supported me financially, donations, and through prayers. Everything you've done is great appriecated and is needed for me to fulfill God's will in my life. Thank you!

Take care and God Bless
Tim
