| Introduction | My name is Aben Claros Hernandez. I work for YouthForChrist in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. This ministry has 4 parts. First is a basic center of education providing education from preK-6th grade for children who have not had the opportunity to go to school because they are extremely poor. Some of them, if they are lucky, eat once a day. For this, we also started a feeding program at the school. Second is evangelism outreach at public schools. We bring teams of musicians, drama, and anything creative to reach highschoolers and bring the Good News to them. Third, we minister at the city dump. We try to go once a week, to bring a warm meal, water, and a devotional to the people who live and work in the trash dump. About 500 people work at the dump and about 100 families live at the dump. The fourth ministry is a street ministry downtown, where I not only do ministry, but mentor the group that goes. The group I mentor is about 40 youth, including ex-gang leaders, from one of the most dangerous neighborhoods. With these youth, we go and reach out to the prostitutes, homeless, street kids, and drug addicts in the downtown area at night. |
