A Tough Week


We have had a tough week here in Honduras. Gloria (the sick mother with 7 children who Mission Lazarus is helping) passed away Tuesday morning. She had been fighting congestive heart failure for a few years. She was bit by a bug called a chinche here in Honduras when she was young and the symptoms didn't show up until about 15-20 years after.

Gloria was in a lot of pain through her life with her sickness but always had a smile on her face. I will miss seeing her encouraging smile. She has 7 of the most beautiful children I have seen in Honduras who Mission Lazarus will continue to support.

Please pray for the children as they grieve their mother's death.
