me Tales from Jayacayan... an Intern's Perspective

Mission Lazarus: Enriching Mind, Body & Soul. Mission Lazarus is a holistic ministry that focuses on basic primary education, skill development, health education and treatment, agricultural development, and preaching and teaching the Word of God.

We are the 2011 Mission Lazarus Interns, and here are our stories.

Last summer I came to Mission Lazarus with a group from Chicago. One of the group members, Chuck Miller, told me “It’s all about the children’s faces.” Since then, I’ve looked at the children of Honduras differently. I love capturing the most precious aspects of their faces.
Today, I was in Cedeño working at the clinic. Around one o’clock, underneath the clinic, the women at the church offer a food program for the children. It was extremely difficult for me to pick out what pictures I wanted to post, but these were some of the “faces” that melted my heart. Their eyes tell a story—Something I try to never look past.
