Our story begins with the birth of Oscar Serrano in the town of Puerto Cortes, Honduras. Early on, his mother became the sole provider for him and his siblings. Daily he witnessed the extreme poverty of his community and vowed one day to help those children and senior citizens who were forced to live homeless on the streets and at the dump. Upon graduating from High School he entered the Baptist Seminary in Honduras and was ordained as a pastor. He also worked in a management position for Coca Cola. Soon thereafter, a Friend Ships humanitarian aid vessel called, The Spirit Ship, pulled into port. He felt the Lord was leading him to join this group. He became the supervisor in the engine room as the ship ministered to various ports in the Caribbean.

Nuestra historia empieza con el nacimiento de Oscar Serrano en la ciudad de Puerto Cortes, Honduras. Desde temprano su madre se convirtió en la única proveedora de él y de sus hermanos. Diariamente, Oscar era testigo a la extrema pobreza de su comunidad y juró que un día él iba a ayudar a esos niños y a los viejitos sin hogar que eran forzados a vivir en la calle y en los basureros. Al graduarse de la escuela preparatoria entró en el Seminario Bautista y fue ordenado como pastor. También trabajó en un puesto de administración para Coca Cola.

AMY RILLS

A short time after high school graduation, a young lady from Louisiana, Amy Rills, decided that she wanted her life to include service on this same ship. She was assigned to work in the engine room for Oscar. Also, on board this same ship was a couple, Eric and Laura Smith from Castle Rock. They ultimately all became friends as they continued on their journey.

Poco después de graduarse de la preparatoria, una jovencita de Louisiana, Amy Rills, decidió que quería que su vida incluyera servicio en el mismo barco médico. Se le asignó a trabajar en el mismo cuarto de motores para Oscar.

"THE FRIENDSHIP" / "LA AMISTAD"

When their service for Friend Ships ended, Oscar and Amy returned to Louisiana and were married. They soon joined the Smiths in Castle Rock to start a ministry together. Their first efforts were directed to sending a container full of medical supplies to a doctor in Vietnam that they had met while serving on the Friendship. Eric's brother, Paul Smith, accompanied the container there to be sure it was given to the intended recipient. Their next effort was to do a similar container project for Honduras.

Poco después el barco médico de Mercy Ships Internacional llamado "La Amistad" vino al puerto. Oscar sintió que el Señor estaba llamándole a juntarse a ese grupo. Se hizo supervisor del cuarto de los motores mientras el barco ministraba a varios puertos en el Caribe.

FRENTERS JOIN MINISTRY It was shortly thereafter that the Smith's father, Bob Smith, a good friend since grade school of board member Lyle Frenter, contacted him to ask if his wife, Mary and he could help this fledgling ministry. His reply was, "Well, we can help them a little bit, but we can't get too involved because Mary just retired and we are going to travel and play some." You can see how strong their determination was - Mary is now the president and Lyle is a charter board member!

Lyle and Mary Frenter

Poco después el padre de los Smith, Bob Smith, buen amigo desde la primaria del miembro de la junta directiva, Lyle Frentner, se puso en contacto con él para preguntar si su esposa, Mary y él podrían ayudar en este ministerio incipiente. Su respuesta fue, "Bueno, podemos ayudarlos un poco, pero no podemos involucrarnos mucho porque Mary acaba de jubilarse y vamos a viajar y disfrutarnos algo" Puede ver lo poco fuerte que era su determinación - ¡Mary ahora es la presidenta y Lyle un miembro fundador de la junta directiva!

PROPERTY SEARCH FOR CHILDREN'S HOME / LA BÚSQUEDA DE TERRENO PARA EL HOGAR DE NIÑOS

In January 1998, Serranos and Paul Smith traveled to Honduras to investigate the price of property for a Children's Home. That Spring, Pastor Roy Henson of the Castle Rock Full Gospel Church, joined our meetings as an advisor. In the fall, Hurricane Mitch hit Honduras hard and changed all of our lives forever!

En enero de 1998, los Serrano y Paul Smith viajaron a Honduras para investigar la compra de un terreno para un Hogar de Niños. En la primavera, Pastor Roy Henson de la Iglesia Evangélica de Castle Rock, se reunió a nuestras reuniones como consejero. ¡En el otoño, Huracán Mitch azotó a Honduras y cambió nuestras vidas por siempre!

HURRICANE MITCH IN 1999 / HURACÁN MITCH EN 1999

We sent Serranos to Honduras in early 1999 to receive our medical container that Dole agreed to ship for free. Serranos called us and told us that the docks were swamped with containers and no more were allowed. There was no infrastructure left in the country to get the container things to the people. However, the dock master told him, "If you want anything out of the containers that are here on the docks, help yourselves". So we sent them funds to purchase a truck to take supplies to the needy.

Mandamos a los Serrano a Honduras a principios de 1999 para recibir nuestro contenedor de provisiones médicas que Dole aceptó a enviar gratis. Oscar nos llamó para decirnos que los puertos estaban llenos de contenedores y no aceptarían más. Ya no había infraestructura en el país para repartir las cosas de los contenedores a la gente. Sin embargo el encargado del puerto le dijo "Si quiere algunas de las cosas en los contenedores, tómelas." Así que le mandamos fondos para comprar un camión para distribuir las provisiones a la gente necesitada.

LA PITA ORPHANAGE 1999-2000 / EL ORFANATO LA PITA 1999-2000

During these delivery trips, they met a pastor trying to take care of 18 boys in an orphanage in the village of La Pita. He requested they ask their church to send support for the boys and to return and build them a tech school. In response, the members of Castle Rock Full Gospel Church began supporting all the boys. The fall of 1999, Pastor Roy Henson became the President of WWH2H and organized 51 individuals on two medical teams, 5 Tech school construction teams and one crusade team led by Pastor Ed Miller of the Castle Rock Christian Church to travel to Honduras from Jan-March of 2000.

Durante estos viajes de distribución, conocieron a un pastor que estaba tratando de cuidar a 18 niños en un orfanato en la aldea de LaPita. Les pidió que su iglesia mandara apoyo para los niños y que regresara a construirles una escuela técnica. En respuesta, los miembros de Iglesia Evangélica de Castle Rock empezaron a apoyar a todos los niños. Entre enero y marzo de 2000, equipos de voluntarios construyeron una escuela técnica al lado del orfanato.

PASTOR ROY HENSON

In response, the members of Castle Rock Full Gospel Church began supporting all the boys. The fall of 1999, Pastor Roy Henson became the President of WWH2H and organized 51 individuals on two medical teams, 5 Tech school construction teams and one crusade team led by Pastor Ed Miller of the Castle Rock Christian Church to travel to Honduras from Jan- March of 2000.

En el otoño de 1999, al Pastor Roy Henson se le nombró Presidente de WWH2H y él organizó a 51 individuos en dos equipos médicos, cinco equipos de construcción de la escuela técnica y un equipo de cruzada dirigido por el Pastor Ed Miller de la Iglesia Cristiana de Castle Rock para viajar a Honduras de enero a marzo de 2000.

FUNDS MISUSED AND ORPHANAGE MISMANAGED IN 2000

We soon discovered that the support monies we were sending to the Honduran pastor for the La Pita Orphanage were being misused by him. It was then determined that if we were to accept peoples' donations for a project, that the only way we could guarantee that the money would be spent for what it was given, was to own and manage the orphanage ourselves.

In September of 2000, Oscar Serrano, Pastor Roy and Linda Henson, and Mary and Lyle Frenter went to Honduras for two weeks to find out what had happened at the La Pita Orphanage. There were only 5 children left living there. There was little food. The Pastor had stolen all the kitchen supplies, the school supplies, and the construction supplies we had left the March before.

Pronto descubrimos que el pastor en Honduras abusó del dinero de apoyo que mandábamos para el Orfanato La Pita. Entonces determinamos que si íbamos a aceptar donaciones para un proyecto, la única garantía de que fueran usadas correctamente era manejar el orfanato nosotros mismos.

En septiembre de 2000, Oscar Serrano, Pastor Roy y Linda Henson y Mary y Lyle Frentner fueron a Honduras por dos semanas para averiguar lo que había pasado con el orfanato de La Pita. Solamente cinco niños vivían allá. No había mucha comida. El pastor se había robado los suministros de cocina, los útiles escolares y los materiales de construcción que habíamos dejado el marzo anterior.

SEARCH FOR PROPERTY IN 2000 /
BÚSQUEDA DE TERRENO EN 2000

So we went looking for property to build our own Children's Home. We found nothing. Two days before our return, the mayor of Omoa invited us to meet a friend of his whom he thought might be able to help us.

Early on a Sunday morning, we met Salomon Lopez, who told us that the night before, he had dreamed we were coming and, in the dream, God told him he was to help us. He mentioned that another group from America had been there the week before and he had given them some property as well. On that morning Salomon gave us the 8 acres that has now become the WWH2H Children's Village and home to 73 beautiful children, our Gifts from God. When completed there will be room for 120. Most of our children have suffered extreme mental, emotional and physical abuse. But God is healing them with the love of His Saints in Honduras and around the world, who pray for them, sponsor them, write to them and go visit them, encircling them in the arms of family.

Fuimos a buscar terreno para construir nuestro Hogar de Niños. No encontramos nada. Dos días antes de regresar, el alcalde de Omoa nos invitó a conocer a un amigo suyo que posiblemente podría ayudarnos.

Temprano ese domingo en la mañana, conocimos a Salomón Lopez de San Pedro Sula, quien nos dijo que la noche anterior había soñado que íbamos a venir. En el sueño, Dios le había dicho que nos ayudara. Mencionó que había estado allí otro barco de America la semana pasada y que el les había dado un terreno a ellos también. En esa mañana Salomón y Elvia Lopez Ayala nos dieron los ocho acres que ahora se han convertido en el Hogar de Niños (ASOCORA) y la casa de nuestros niños, regalos de Dios.

STEVE SHARP MEETS EDGAR IN 2002 / STEVE SHARP CONOCE A EDGAR EN 2002

We continued to raise funds and send teams to build a little at a time. In 2002, one of our team members, Steve Sharp, met Edgar, now 11 years old, who had lived in the La Pita orphanage. He knew we were building a place for him to live. Steve tells it best. "Edgar came up to me when he saw my WWH2H shirt. He didn't ask me for food and he didn't ask me for money. He just wanted to know, "When is my home going to be ready?" Steve was so moved by this thin slight child that he vowed to come back to the U.S. and raise the funds we needed to finish the home. He told us he was not going back to Honduras until he could finish the home and would not come back to the U.S. until he tucked Edgar into his own bed.

Continuamos levantando fondos y enviando equipos para construir poco a poco. En 2002, uno de los miembros de nuestros equipos, Steve Sharp, conoció a Edgar, de once años, que había vivido en el orfanato La Pita. Edgar sabía que estábamos construyendo un a hogar donde podría vivir. Steve lo cuenta mejor "Edgar se me acercó cuando vio mi camisa de WWH2H. No me pidió comida ni dinero. Sólo quería sabe, "¿Cuándo estará listo mi hogar?" Ese delgado niño conmovió tanto a Steve que juró que iba a regresar a los EEUU y levantar los fondos necesarios para terminar el hogar.

MARY FRENTER ELECTED PRESIDENT IN 2003 / NOMBRÓ A MARY FRENTNER PRESIDENTA EN 2003

2003 was a pivotal year for WWH2H. Pastor Henson resigned as President and Mary Frenter was elected. She prayed for God to show her how to do this job. She investigated other ministries online to find one similar to WWH2H, so she could go visit them and pick their brains. She found one in Kentucky and one in Baja, Mexico. In February, the plumber friend of a friend mentioned to him there was an organization similar to WWH2H headquartered somewhere in the northwest. It was called International Children's Care (ICC) Mary looked them up on the Internet and found they were located in Vancouver, WA. 35 minutes from her home! She called them and spoke with the President, Rick Fleck who told her she had to talk with his mom, Alcyon Fleck, the founder of ICC. So, she went to meet Alcyon. As they chatted, Mary mentioned how WWH2H was given the property in Honduras. She told Alcyon, "And you'll never guess the name of the gift giver. It is Solomon, like King Solomon!" Much to her surprise, Alcyon replied, " Not Solomon Lopez?" She knew him! Turns out she was the ministry he mentioned to us that he had met with the week before we showed up in 2000!! Long story short, ICC agreed to mentor us and continues to advise us to this day.

El año 2003 fue crucial para WWH2H. El Pastor Henson renunció como presidente y se eligió a Mary Frentner. Ella oró para que Dios le mostrara como hacer este trabajo.

NATIONAL DIRECTORS & EDGAR In July we sent Oscar and Amy Serrano to live full time as our National Directors, so the work could go forward faster. In August, Frenters went to help out. One of the children who had lived in the La Pita orphanage, Edgar, had been asking our team members each year when he saw them on the streets of Puerto Cortes, "When will my home be ready?" Four days before we arrived, Edgar was electrocuted as he climbed out of a store vent where he had gone to sleep for the night. Our hearts were broken. We had not worked fast enough. When Frenters returned home, they contacted all their relatives and asked for help to open a Meals from the Heart program to at least begin feeding the children living on the streets and at the dump. This program lasted for a year until another mission group took it over. Serranos investigated the circumstances of each of the 80 children who came to eat each day. One day, they met 5 boys who were living together under a bridge. Oscar asked if they would like to come live at the partially completed building in Tegucigalpita. They said yes and on September 21st, 2003, the first 5 children moved in at our Children's Village. It was like camping, but they stuck with us and helped complete the Clinic building which was their first home. In Memory of Edgar | En Memoria de Edgar

MERCY SHIP INTERNATIONAL

In December of 2003, one of our pastors, Ed Miller went to Honduras with a friend of his who had been the Youth Pastor at Ed's church years before. This friend, Steve Wilcox, was looking for a small ministry to help and wanted to see first hand what we were doing. As they were traveling back to Puerto Cortes from our Village, they stopped in Omoa, a sleepy fishing village on the Caribbean, to have lunch. As they ate, a total stranger approached them asking if they were Christians. Then he wanted to know if they were responsible for the project at Tegucigalpita. He said he drove by it each day and it looked like we were having a difficult time completing it. He wanted to know if we wanted some help. He was Lawrence Jones, the missions coordinator for Mercy Ships, International. He told us he would try to gather three construction teams and $25,000 to help us build the following summer of 2004. Steve Wilcox said he would match that. Neither knew we had estimated it would take $50,000 to complete the first phase of the Village!! In 2004 Steve Wilcox raised over $60,000 for us in construction funds and Mercy Ships has sent teams each year since to help us build.

En diciembre de 2003, uno de nuestros pastores, Ed Miller, fue a Honduras con un amigo que había servido como el pastor de jóvenes hace años en la iglesia de Ed. Este amigo, Steve Wilcox, estaba buscando un pequeño ministerio para ayudar y quería ver de primera mano lo que estábamos haciendo. Los dos estaban regresando a Puerto Corez del Hogar de Niños y se detuvieron en Omoa, un tranquilo pueblo de pescadores junto al Caribe, para almorzar. Mientras comían, un desconocido se les acercó preguntándoles si eran cristianos. Luego quería saber si eran los responsables del proyecto en Tegucigalpita. Les dijo que pasaba frente a ello en su carro todos los días y le parecía que tenía problemas en completarlo. Quería saber ni necesitaban ayuda. Era Lawrence Jones, el coordinador para Mercy Ships. Nos dijo que iba a tratar de formar tres equipos de construcción y juntar $25.000 para ayudarnos el verano siguiente de 2004. Steve Wilcox dijo que iba a igualar a esa cantidad. ¡Ninguno de los dos sabía que la Junta Directiva había estimado que necesitaba $50.000 para terminar la primera fase del Hogar de Niños! En 2004, Steve Wilcox recaudó mas de $60.000 en fondos para construcción y Mercy Ships nos ha mandado equipos cada año desde entonces.

MISSION TEAMS 2004 / EQUIPOS DE MISIÓN 2004

Our first Vacation Bible School (VBS) teams ministered to almost 700 children in January. The medical team treated 3,000 patients in February. In March, the construction team raised the steel for the new roof on the whole complex. Summer and fall saw building teams from Honduras, Washington State and Mercy Ships working to complete the clinic, one house and parts of several other structures. The plumbing and electrical systems were completed. Our farm got off to a good start with three cows, two fish ponds, a chicken coop, and a large vegetable garden. Five more children came to live at Children's Village. After a furlough in Washington State in December, the Serranos returned to Honduras with a truck filled with donated items.

Nuestra primera escuela bíblica ministró a casi 700 niños en enero. El equipo médico atendió a 3,000 pacientes en febrero. En marzo, el equipo de construcción levantó el nuevo techo para todo el complejo. En el verano y otoño, vinieron equipos de construcción de Honduras, del estado de Washington y de Mercy Ships trabajando para terminar la clínica y una casa y comenzando otras estructuras. La plomería y sistema eléctrico fueron completados. Nuestra granja empezó bien con tres vacas, dos estanques para pescar, un gallinero y un huerto para vegetales. Cinco niños más vinieron a vivir al Hogar del Niños. Después de un viaje al estado de Washington en diciembre, los Serrano regresaron a Honduras con una camión llena de cosas donadas.

INCORPORATION AND HONDURAN BOARD 2004-2007 / INCORPORACIÓN Y JUNTA DIRECTIVA DE HONDURAS 2004-2007

When we began this vision, we told God we were only going to have boys at the Children's Home, because mixing boys and girls could lead to difficulties. Our first 5 arrived in 2003. The next three He brought to us were Ilcy and her two brothers. So we said, "OK, God, I guess we will have girls. But we really can't take kids with special needs because that takes so many helpers and lots of funds." The next three children He brought to us were David with a club foot, and his brothers. So, we said,"OK God, I guess we will have special needs kids, but we REALLY cannot have toddlers and babies because they REALLY take lots of money and helpers that we don't have." So,… we opened our toddler/nursery house in November of 2007, and now we don't tell God stuff. We hush up and listen and watch Him create out of nothing what He wants in Honduras.

In the ensuing years, we have become incorporated as a nonprofit in Honduras. We have established a Honduran Board of Directors, that, along with our Church Family, works with Oscar and Amy Serrano to manage our ministry in Honduras. We have finished the original structure, which is home to our boys, built a Girls' Home, a baby/toddler house, an older teens and young adult men house, a church for 500, a long-term volunteer's living quarters, a technical school, a laundry building and a playground. We have a gym-sized cement slab for soccer, basketball, tennis, and volleyball, a baseball field, an orchard, a dozen milk cows and a garden. Washington Overseas Missions installed a water purification system on our well system. We have a woodworking shed, a tortilla making shed and two storage buildings. We are blessed with teachers for house moms and all our children 10 and older are home schooled. We will add the little ones, hopefully next year when we get our school done. It will be an English immersion school and will be open to the public for a fee, which will be used to fund the school. In addition, in the next months we hope to build a Toddler/Nursery House for our babies at the Children's Village. In January 2008,we were given another 10 acres in the Santa Barbara Mountains to build another Children's Village, as well. Again - amazing!!!

Entre 2004 y 2007, creamos una corporación no lucrativa en Honduras, tenemos una junta directiva en Honduras que trabaja con Oscar y Amy Serrano para manejar nuestro trabajo allá, y hemos terminado la estructura original, construimos una clínica, una escuela técnica, y un patio de recreo. Tenemos una cancha del tamaño de un gimnasio para fútbol, básquetbol, tenis y voleibol, hemos comenzado a desarrollar un campo de béisbol, tenemos un estaque donde criamos pescados para comer, hemos cultivado un huerto, tenemos una docena de vacas dando leche y un jardín, hemos instalado un sistema de purificación de agua en nuestro sistema del pozo, tenemos una casita para trabajos de madera, una casita para hacer tortillas y dos cobertizos para almacenaje. Estamos bendecidos con madres que dan clases y enseñamos a todos los niños mayores de 10 en el mismo Hogar de Niños. Vamos a agregar los pequeños cuando terminemos nuestra escuela, esperamos que sea en 2008. Será una escuela de inmersión en inglés y pueden asistir otros de la comunidad pagando una tarifa, la cual será usada para los gastos de la escuela. ¡Otra vez-asombroso!

BIBLE STUDY BECOMES CHURCH AND MORE

In October 2006, our Honduras Board asked Oscar to conduct a Bible Study on Sunday mornings. Sixty people showed up the first Sunday. Now over 300 show up. We rented the Rotary Club building in Puerto Cortes for services until 2008 when we bought property and built our own church and a house for our teen and adult boys while they attend private schools and the university. This building will also be used for our Meals from the Heart program to feed those living on the streets. The WWH2H Church was dedicated in August 2008. Pastor Ed Miller held the first crusade there in September 2008. Someday we hope to have a free medical/dental/optometry clinic, a teen center, and a home for abused women and their children here or near this location in Puerto Cortes. We will see what God has in mind.

En enero, nuestro segundo equipo de escuela bíblica ministró a más de 500 niños en Tegucigalpita. Tres niños más vinieron a vivir con la familia del Hogar de Niños en febrero. El equipo médico llegó en marzo y atendió a más de 4000 personas en seis días de clínica. La clínica en el Hogar de Niños fue dedicada y nombrada la "Clínica Memorial Edgar" para honrar al niño que murió antes de que pudiéramos traerlo a nuestro hogar de donde vivía en la calle. Mercy Ships mandó cuatro equipos entre abril y agosto para construir un patio de recreo y para iniciar la escuela técnica en el Hogar de Niños. Los Serrano descansaron en el estado de Washington de junio a octubre. Cinco miembros de la junta directiva hicieron una presentación en la Conferencia sobre Honduras en octubre en Copán Ruinas. El ministerio Toque de Esperanza visitó al Hogar de Niños y premió a 100 niños con becas para asistir a la escuela el año siguiente.

SAMARITAN'S PURSE

In August of 2008, as a result of one of God's Divine Appointments, we were blessed to meet Paul and Joyce Chiles of Samaritan's purse. They facilitated a donation to WWH2H to begin construction of our new Baby/Toddler/Teen Girls House. It was completed by God's grace, with the funding help of several others, in early June 2009 when the children moved in. Eventually, we hope to build a home for mentally handicapped children , a school, and a warehouse at our Children's Village. At this time, we have 97 children in our family, ages 7 months to 21 years old. In April of 2009, again by God's grace, we began the construction in Puerto Cortes of the home/WWH2H headquarters for our Directors, Oscar and Amy Serrano.

El tercer equipo de escuela bíblica anual viajó a Honduras a finales de enero. Terminaron la cuarta de cuatro casas en el Hogar de Niños. La iglesia Immanuel Luterano recaudó fondos para comprar un tractor grande que ayudará con mantenimiento de la propiedad. Llenamos y enviamos un contenedor con el tractor, suministros, ropa, comida y equipo a Honduras. Un grupo de jóvenes de Immanuel visitó la última semana de diciembre y construyó un campo de béisbol en el Hogar de Niños y juegó con los niños.

STAFF

The only employees who receive a salary are those who are employed on site in Honduras. All those who travel there on Construction, Medical, VBS, Maintenance or Crusade Teams pay for their own travel and in country expenses. Almost 100% of donations we receive are used for care of the children, with a small amount used for publishing and mailing newsletters. The whole ministry has been accomplished by God's love pouring out of hundreds of His kids from all over the world to His kids in Honduras. To God be all the glory!!! Amen.

Cuatro años seguidos ya, el WWH2H equipo bíblico fue a Honduras a finales de enero y ministró a 250 niños cada día en Tegucigalpita y Puerto Cortes. La primera semana de febrero, la enfermera pediatra practicante Kim Sharp hizo evaluaciones médicas para cada niño, y actualizó sus historias médicas desde su última visita en julio de 2006. En marzo, el equipo médico de WWH2H visitó a muchas aldeas pobres para proporcionar atención médica, dental y ocular. En Junio, el equipo de drama de la escuela Damascus Christian enseñó a los niños de Hogar de Niños como hacer sketches de alcance y trucos de ilusión, y usó equipos de fútbol y voleibol donados por Niké para enseñar a nuestros niños a jugar voleibol. El equipo de drama y muchos de los niños entonces hicieron sketches para escuelas e iglesias del área.
