PRAYER SUPPORT
Support the worker
+As a missionary who came to the field after retirement from teaching, I am raising funds while on the field. This requires doing double duty, both to set up and maintaining the ministry, and to fundraise. Please pray that I can get 100% of my funding raised so that I can dedicate more of my focus to the Sew Blessed Ministry.
+ Please pray for me as I try to save to purchase my own car. God has blessed me with transportation from the ministers here on Roatan and I am grateful for their generosity but am looking to get my own car.
+I have a need to travel back to the states to see my father as he is unwell. Pray for safety and that things go well with the visit. Pray I can visit some churches who are interested in partnering with me with funding.
Population Needs
The people of this area suffer from extreme poverty. They often suffer from insufficient food security, lack of running water, access to plumbing, and proper drainage of the area. During downpours the mud slides down the mountain and into the main street. The dump is smelly, dangerous and unregulated, which creates various hazards and chemical exposure. The sun is hot while working at the dump and many people do not have access to fresh water. The women of the sewing class have either worked at the dump, have relatives that work at the dump or live in the crowded ghettos that lack adequate housing, sanitation, or living conditions.
Many people suffer from diabetes because they eat unhealthy food and lack proper medical facilities. It is difficult to travel away from the dump area for most people. Most people associated with the dump scrounge for recyclable materials to sell because they have no other source of income.
Pray for the needs of this area and the women I serve.
Spirit of Piracy
The island has a history with pirates and that spirit of piracy still lingers over the island. Pray that the people of the island and the country can be released from these layers of that spirit of piracy. Pray for the people of Mud Hole and the surrounding neighborhoods as they battle these elements all around them
