WHAT IS BREAKING CHAINS Honduras?

Breaking Chains Honduras exists to serve and seek change for those affected by urban poverty in Tegucigalpa by meeting basic needs and developing human relationships that act as a gateway toward a relationship with Christ. The ministry building houses between 5 and 15 young adults at any given time with the goal of spiritually and physically ministering to those young adults and helping them move toward independence. Through the help of U.S. donors, the ministry also seeks to break the cycle of poverty for families by sponsoring local children to receive private education from established, Honduran-run schools in the city. The ministry building also serves as a community center and houses our church services where we grow together with our Breaking Chains family.

Rather than mailing items directly to Honduras, we typically suggest that people send items down with someone who is traveling to the country. That method is typically more cost and time-effective than regular mail.
