From February 28 through March 7, 2015, a team will provide for the physical needs, as well as the spiritual needs, of the Honduran people. Follow us as we document the preparations and the planning, the training and the team-building, the going and the growing as we serve the LORD Jesus, our One and Only Savior, and the people of Honduras.

Collecting Supplies ... and PRAYERS!!

Hey You Guys!!  
In case you forgot ...

The Community Church of Elkhorn is sending a team of 12 people to Honduras from 9/28-10/5/2013, to meet the physical and spiritual needs of the Honduran people in the capitol city of Tegucigalpa.  Our team consisting of medical professionals, as well as non-medical individuals, will provide medical, dental, vision and pharmaceutical care for many of the Honduran people who would not otherwise have the means to receive such care.  In addition, we will participate in a children’s ministry that will involve sharing a gospel message designed for children and giving each child a special bracelet to help them remember the message. 

We've begun collecting supplies, ... items needed in serving and providing for the Honduran people.
Many of us are purchasing a few things each week ... some of us are sewing homemade eyeglasses cases for the Optical portion of the ministry ... we've received several donations!


This is a great opportunity to make a difference in the lives of fellow human beings who do not have the resources to properly care for themselves.

Would you like to help us make a difference?  Do you know someone else you can invite to partner with us?

We are collecting donations of the following:

Adult and child toothbrushes and travel size toothpaste (Do you know a dentist who'd be willing to donate?)
Cough/Cold Tablets – Adult
Antibiotic Cream (Neosporin, Polysporin)
Prenatal Vitamins
Vaginal Yeast Infection Treatment
Ibuprofin (200 mg)
Anti-Itch (hydrocortisone) Cream
Anti-Fungal Cream
Acetaminophen (500 mg)
Antacid Tablets

For a complete list of NEEDS, please contact Brian/Kimberly Prendergast: 262-723-5584 / prenderbergs@gmail.com
