The Latin
American Missionary and Bible Institute (LAMB) is a Christ-centered
ministry reaching out to the world with the love of Jesus. They have
actively cared for neglected and abandoned children since 2000. These
are children who are at risk or victims of physical, sexual, and
emotional abuse by adults and/or older siblings. This community
provides a safe, nurturing environment, balanced meals, clothing and
recreation, and tutoring. They have recently purchased rural land in
order to expand its overflowing Children's Residential Home to
better serve their needs. Teams from North Metro Episcopal Churches
provide assistance to the LAMB Institute which is located in Flor del
Campo, an impoverished inner city neighborhood in the Honduran capital
city of Tegucigalpa.
During Spring 2007, and again in Spring
2008, St. Aidan's sent missioners to Honduras to work for the LAMB
Institute in Tegucigalpa. Deacon Carole Maddux, Karen DeArmey and Jim
Myers represented the church in 2007. Deacon Carole Maddux, Katy
Maddux, Karen DeArmey, Joey Sargent, Alyssa Sargent, Jim Myers, Martha
Myers, and Betsy Laundon represented St. Aidan’s during 2008.
In two weeks in January 2009, Betsy
Laundon represented St. Aidan's. St. Aidan's is sending two
more teams: March 7-14, 2009 ( Karen DeArmey and Fr. Keith) and April 4-11, 2009
(Joey and Alyssa Sargent and Anna Bowman). The work will probably center around cottages for the children
to live and attend school in. Please join us as members of the “home”
team or the “away” team or both. The home team will focus on support
for those who choose to go to Honduras – the away team.
