Honduras Medical Mission |
Preparations are now underway
for the 2011 Honduras Medical Mission. Team members, consisting of doctors,
dentists, nurses, dental hygienists, pharmacists, priests, translators and
support staff, volunteer their time and each pay their own expenses. The
mission is not included in the diocesan budget, therefore we need your
contributions to buy medicine, replace necessary equipment and for other
essential supplies.
During the 2010 mission trip,
the team installed a water purification unit in the village of San Joaquin.
The villagers now have clean water to drink, which will have a long lasting
effect on overall village health. This could not have been possible without
your donations. For the success of this most important work, we ask for your
prayers, and your financial support.
Donations may be mailed to:
Honduras Medical Mission
Chapel of the Cross
674 Mannsdale Rd.
Madison, MS 39110
Applications to be
included as a team member may be obtained at...

AMERICAN FRIENDS MIDDLE-EAST MISSIONS
The American Friends, a non-profit,
non-political ministry was founded in 1989 by Bishop Peter Lee of
Virginia and then-Bishop Samir Kafity of the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem.
It supports work in
two major hospitals, several schools, 29 parishes, and 35 service
organizations in a diocese that
covers 121,000 square miles—nearly three times the size of Mississippi.
Since 1996, American Friends has donated more than $20 million of free
medical, school, and infant supplies to the Diocese of Jerusalem and has
helped in educating 140 deaf children in Jordan.
At its annual meeting in January, this Episcopal ministry set a goal of
$200,000 for grants this year for projects in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan,
Jerusalem, and areas under the governing Palestinian National Authority. The
money, which is now being sought from individuals, parishes, and dioceses,
will support emergency medical and
food programs, aid literacy campaigns, student scholarships, youth
ministries, and peace programs among children. In addition, funds will be
directed to a school for developmentally delayed children in Beirut,
Lebanon.
The Rev. Charles Cloughen, Jr. of Towson, MD, is the current president and
chair of American Friends. Cloughen said, “We are
building an atmosphere of
peace and reconciliation in the midst of despair and violence.
Our gifts help to keep the Episcopal Church alive in the Holy Land.” With
the help from American Friends, the Church is moving ahead in its ministry
in the Middle-East. The work of American Friends may also strengthen the
unity of the Church throughout the world.
If you wish to
contribute to American Friends,
please make your check payable to All Saints’
Episcopal Church
and mark it “American Friends.
