Some pictures from Honduras when I worked at an orphanage on a medical mission trip
Most Christians say that want to be involved in mission work. The first thing that generally comes out of their mouth is, “I want to serve children in other countries who need our help!” By no means is this statement wrong, but people in America need to realize the importance of missions that need to be done right here, in America. Children all across our country are suffering everyday and need our help. We, as America, need to focus on making our country a better place for children. America’s children need our help and support to keep them alive and healthy. I have been involved with mission work in Honduras, as well as, in the United States. When I did my mission work in Alabama, I was in shock. I had no idea there were places in the United States where children needed help. We, as American’s, need to stand up and take care of our children in the United States. Yes, there are organizations that do take care of children here in the United States, but not enough. These children need homes, food, clothes, and people who love them. We as a country make such an impact and difference to children in other countries all the time, so imagine the impact we could make on our own country. Not to mention the resources and help we have here in the United States, we could make a huge difference. Take a stand America and help our children survive!
