About Mission Honduras
Mission Honduras is a hands-on global ministry helping the less fortunate in the Department of Olancho, (north central) Honduras, with the base of operations located in Juticalpa. St. Philip’s Mission Honduras was founded in 2015. The Mission’s objectives include assistance with water purification operations in schools, distribution of optical reader eyewear, bibles, prayer cards, preparation and distribution of food baskets, clothing and sports gear donated by parishioners. We accept soccer clothing, cleats, and balls year-round and all donations go directly to help the people in Olancho. Additionally, we support a local special needs school. Join our next mission team of teenagers and adults of all ages from Saturday, June 21st to Saturday, June 28th 2025 for a memorable and meaningful mission trip.
Mission Honduras is part of our monthly parish giving envelopes starting January 2025. Giving to the Mission Honduras may also be done online.
