Honduras, the second poorest country in the
Western Hemisphere, lies in Central America
between Guatemala and Nicaragua, with coasts
on both the Caribbean and Pacific Oceans. The
vast majority of its people live in extreme
poverty, and since most poor children do not
attend school beyond the 3rd grade, the cycle of
hardship and poverty is repeated for families
through many generations.
Since 2003, Santa Maria de la Paz has sent
groups of teens and adults to spend time (an

supporting its sister Parish, Santa Rosa de Lima and
the Mary Poussepin Girls School in Guaimaca,
Honduras.
The Honduran Mission Group planning committee
meets monthly to help support the travel and work of
the Mission Group each year. With the experience
gained from past travel, the Mission Group is able to
provide the volunteers with travel advice in
preparation for the trip including materials and
immunization requirements, passport application
process, etc. Though the accommodations and
meals in Honduras are simple, they are adequate.
The planning committee also works on an annual
fundraiser to help defray the expenses of those
wishing to make the trip but may be experiencing
financial hardship.
