BESIDES HELPING TO SUPPORT THE ABOVE MISSIONARIES, WE ARE SPONSORING A FEEDING PROGRAM IN THE VILLAGE OF LA OVA IN HONDURAS. THERE ARE VERY FEW JOB OPPORTUNTIES FOR THE FATHERS SO THE CHURCH IS TRYING TO FEED THE CHILDREN AT LEAST ONE MEAL A DAY. WE CALL THIS PROGRAM "CHANGE FOR A CHANGE". EVERY SUNDAY MORNING AS THE PEOPLE ARRIVE AT CHURCH, THEY DROP ALL THEIR CHANGE IN A "HOUSE" THAT WAS BUILT BY ONE OF THE MEMBERS. AT THE END OF EACH MONTH THE MONEY IS COLLECTED AND SENT TO THE MISSION OFFICE IN HUNTINGTON  AND THEN SENT ON TO HONDURAS. ALSO THE V.B.S.OFFERING WAS GIVEN TO THIS PROGRAM TO FEED THE KIDS.
