This year we celebrate 14 years of our covenant partnership with the Fray Casimiro Cypher Institute in Olancho our Honduras Mission partner. Through our partnership, the staff, students, the families, and the community of the Institute were able to face many challenges presented during this past two years. Students were able to continue their studies with the extra technology equipment support we provided, and more than 90 students graduated last December. This year we celebrate 14 years of our covenant partnership with the Fray Casimiro Cypher Institute in Olancho our Honduras Mission partner.

We are excited to have the Institute’s director, Mr. Wilson Romero, visit us again this year to bring us an update of all the projects we have been able to support thanks to your continuous donations and prayers. It is incredible to see how much our parish has positively affected the lives of so many students and their community. We will focus on the following goals for our Honduras Mission Program in the coming year: 

• We will continue to provide funds to subsidize teacher salaries and benefits.
• We will help purchase textbooks for students in need.
• We will assist with the completion of the construction of the facilities for intern students.
• We will assist to significantly improve and expand the current workshop educational program. Workshops included are:
  • Wood and Metals, Mechanics and motorcycle repair, Computers and cell phone repairs; Hairstylist and barbers.
• Provide scholarships to 130 selected students.
• We help fund the relocation and actualization of the water plant in the new building.
• Support to relocate the administrative offices and refurbish current offices into more classrooms.

Prayerfully consider making a donation to support our Honduras Mission Program, your donations make a huge and positive difference in helping the students get an education that will provide them with skills needed to help them earn money to support themselves and their families and keep praying for our friends in Honduras as they do for us. On behalf of the students, teachers and staff at the Institute.
