Support sought for Medical Mission to Honduras For the fourth year in a row, Aldersgate’s Fay Painter, joined this year by
Kathryn Reid, will spend a week in June in the impoverished, remote
mountainous region of central Honduras, bringing life-saving medicine
and health care to children and families. Fay and Kathryn’s mission trip
is with the Friends of Barnabas Foundation in Midlothian, Virginia, which
was started 15 years ago by a United Methodist minister, the Reverend
Linwood Cook.
Fay is the co-
leader of the June team.
The cost is $2,000per person, and the team needs to raise an additional $7,500 to
purchase medicine and medical supplies. Please consider a gift to

I recently returned from my annual medical mission trip to Hai. This
year’s April Team saw 2,927 paents, including 125 dental paents. I
have been parcipang in The Hai Mission since 2001, and the people
at Aldersgate have been generous supporters during this me. This year
Aldersgate contribuons (which totaled over $2,300) purchased $1,400
worth of medicaon, $270 worth of consults or procedures at our
referral hospital, $275 towards a clean water system, “Happy Meals” for
hungry paents, and helped to support school expenses for needy
students.
It has been a true blessing for me to connue to be a part of this
amazing project. Contribuons from Aldersgate, and from countless
other generous souls, have made it possible to send medical teams to
this rural community in northern Hai four mes a year since the mid
1980’s. In addion, The Hai Mission now funds a local physician who
works all year round at the clinic. Over the 15 years I have been going to
Hai, I really can see a slow improvement in the health of this
community.
