At St. Andrew's the loose plate offerings on the last Sunday of each month are given to an organization chosen by our Outreach Committee. Donations for the Last Sunday Offering can also be sent directly to the office.
October 2022: EL HOGAR
The mission of El Hogar is to transform and empower abandoned, hopelessly poor children in Honduras by providing a loving home and education. The goal is for them to fulfill their ultimate potential as productive, caring and independent Honduran citizens.
At El Hogar, the most desperate children – the ones on the streets, the ones without enough to eat, the ones at most risk – are found and given a path to a better future through love, support, and tools to for a better life. One child at a time, we are planting the seeds of hope for a new, more prosperous Honduras.
