Honduras 2010 Mission Trip

Before we came to Honduras our coordinator visited several cities pastors, mayors and people that were in need of wheelchairs. They visit each person and register them for a wheelchair. They work with the community to get transportation to our distribution.

During this trip Shanda shared her testimony in a rehab centerm a church and a agricultural science center. The people that came to hear her on Tuesday went to the distribution to receive mobility equipment on Wednesday...

On Wednesday a bus came from Comayagua about one and a half hours from Jesus de Otoro.
Rita is a young teen with osteogenesis imperfecta, she was on this bus. This is also known as brittle bone disease and they often have fractures. Rita had a right leg fracture recently.

Rita came to receive a wheelchair on this bus. 

She came with her mom and her brother. God provided just the right wheelchair for Rita! We often need to make modifications that can take 4 to 7 hours. For Rita the mechanic simply had to make her a foot plate.
What a blessing for this mom who usually must carry her everywhere.
