February 19 - 24, 2008
We helped a mission group staying at Pan American re-build a house for a family in a town called Los Andes. This is a poor community in the mountains above Las Vegas, Honduras. The family of six were living on the Pan American campus after losing their house during the rainy season and their eldest daughter had recently passed away due to kidney failure.
Many local kids and adults came to watch the "gringos" build a house. The bottom 4 feet was done in stucco and the top in plywood. A new door and one window. There was enough plywood left over to make shutters, a table and shelves. Nothing fancy, but it will keep them out of the elements.
