One of the benefits of AHMEN's community agent training program is that AHMEN's Rio de Agua Viva team receives regular, up-to-date information from local sources. It's not always good news.
Last fall, a tornado struck Yorito, Yoro, Honduras and severely damaged many buildings and homes.
AHMEN is not currently equipped to fund rebuilding projects across the town, but we can with your help.
Tornadoes have followed me my entire life. One landed in my backyard in Smyrna, Ga when I was six-years-old. Another hit St. James Elementary in Montgomery, AL just an hour before the bell was to ring on spring morning. I remember seeing paper falling from the sky hours before the 2011 Tuscaloosa-Birmingham tornadoes. I knew something weird was about to happen. Yet another followed me to Nashville, TN in the spring of 2020. If you have similar tales of storms invading your personal space, or have even lost everything due to one, you know how vulnerable and exposed storm damage can make you feel.
AHMEN's Rio de Agua Viva team would like to establish a rebuilding fund for cases just like these so that during unpredictable times we can help.
Would you consider taking our message to your Sunday School class, church, local organization, and family? A one-time or regular donation will mean the world to families left without rooves, walls, and windows.
Visit AHMEN.org to donate. Email me when you do. Then, share this blog with others so we can amass a relief fund for Yorito's recent storm damage and other towns which experience weather loss in the future. Maybe you would even like to lead a building team to go repair the dozen or so houses left in disrepair. Contact AHMEN today to learn how to get started!
Without friends and family to help, we are all alone in times of need. However, with your support, together we are the difference.
