This leads me to share with you, there is an incredible ministry, Urban Promise for Honduras, here locally that is mentoring youth of Copan Ruinas and surrounding communities for the Kingdom of God. Within their organization, they have UrbanTrekkers. They continue the vision of UPH through bicycling, hiking, and camping. Their vision is incredible and what they do for the lives of the youth is so impactful. For the past ten years, they have raised up an army of young people that can now dream and see those dreams come true!
For this project, we have connected with Bike World in West Des Moines, IA. Together, we will kick off our event August 20, 2019. Through Bike World, our goal is to purchase around 10 to 15 bicycles, equipment for future maintenance, accessories, clothing, and much more. The remaining funds will be for shipping, import tax, and customs.
We at MorningStar Missions believe that this event will help propel UrbanTrekkers to a great level in their ministry to the youth of Honduras. Today, people are so quick to point fingers at problems, but lacking so much in the solution. Through this event, we are not only suggesting a solution; we are bringing it forth for others to take part in.
Stay tune for the kickoff of the crowdfunding event.
