Mission Relief Services would like to invite those who have contributed to the success of our mission to join us in a trip to Honduras C.A.
We will be visiting clinics that have received material aid from the generosity of donors to Mission Relief Services. This will be a one week trip from March 10, 2006 to March 17, 2006.
The cost of the trip is $650 for double occupancy and $850 for single occupancy. This does not include airfare which can run between $675-$725.
We stay in comfortable air-conditioned accommodations. Everyday will travel between 45 minutes or more to our mission destination.
We will be greeted by between 150 to 200 people, some who have walked hours for the only medical care they may receive all year. This is a great way to share some of the blessings that have been bestowed upon us.
