Supporting the Circus Amidst Covid-19

Supporting the Circus Amidst Covid-19

We have been able to help families who are in need, and one of those families is the Valiente Family.

Of the hundreds of stops we’ve made to personally distribute food and other basic necessities to our friends, neighbors and families in need the Valiente Family may be one of my most fun and treasured memories.

Señora Rosita Valiente, who has accomplished 72 years of life, told me she was born in to the circus business and has loved entertaining families all across the nation her entire life.

COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund Update

COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund Update

Together we have already provided thousands of meals to people in need. We have worked with several local leaders to ensure we are getting to those in need and that we are doing it safely and securely. As the lockdown is extended this week in La Ceiba, Connect Global plans to continue purchasing and distributing as many Family Sized Meal Kits as possible, and we wouldn’t be able to help these families without the generosity of so many both in the US and here in Honduras.

Fast With Us

Fast With Us

Our team would like to invite you to a fast with us. We are using this time to lean into what God is doing around the world. This fast will include abstaining from food, devoting special time to reading the Bible, and putting more emphasis on prayer for the next 21 days as a group.

The Essentials

The Essentials

All over the world today people are facing the same enemy, Covid-19. This tiny virus has caused a huge commotion. Businesses have closed. Schools have shut their doors. Entire nations have declared a quarantine in an effort to limit the spread of the virus. I’m sure in the near and distant future we will look back on this time as a significant historical marker.

The Importance of Clean Water

The Importance of Clean Water

In 2016 Connect Global partnered with the Community Water District in El Tamarindo to support a plan to give water to the residents of this remote and very water insecure town. In August of 2018 & 2019, Connect Global helped complete the most recent phases of this current plan to bring water to 2 communities near the original well that was dug. In August 2020 we plan to visit with a Honduran Mission Team and continue our work in this area of need. Thank You for your support.

Thank You from the Firefighters of Honduras

Thank You from the Firefighters of Honduras

In 2015, Connect Global launched an initiative in Honduras we call Connected Community. As a part of our ongoing support and investment into the Community of La Ceiba, Honduras our team has provided medic training for several members of the local police department. Since then we have also engaged with the Fire Department El Porvenir to provide fire suits, medical equipment, and other job related support like communication radios and most recently an ambulance.

Update on The Roof Project for Pastor Fredy at the Comedor de JesuCristo in La Ceiba

Update on The Roof Project for Pastor Fredy at the Comedor de JesuCristo in La Ceiba

​We have been able to help Pastor Fredy with the first phase of the Roof project.

We were able to visit his church on Saturday and see that there is still much progress to be made. We sat in service and were rained on under the yet to be replaced roof. It was great to see first hand the severity of the need as well as the steadfastness of the Pastor and church as they did not let this major inconvenience affect them. Their ministry continues despite the heavy rains.

Please help Connect Global reach our goal and complete the roof.

PASTOR FREDY VENTURA IS A VERY DEDICATED SERVANT TO THE PEOPLE OF LA CEIBA.

He is a man that holds in very high regard the responsibility God has bestowed upon him. His work is run on Faith in God alone. 

7 DAYS A WEEK AND 24 HOURS A DAY, PEOPLE IN LA CEIBA CAN COME TO THE COMEDOR DE JESUCRISTO AND RECEIVE A MEAL.

There are three designated meal times set aside to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, however, because of a rotation of volunteer pastors and church leaders, they will serve a meal to someone in need at any time of day or night. 

The location is centrally located and easy to access. There are no forms to sign, or agreements between those serving and those eating. They have stripped everything down to a basic service of feeding the hungry. At each meal the word of God is preached, and food is served. They do so based on a belief of biblical scriptures instructing them to do so. 

People wishing to get a meal do not need to do anything except show up.
