Mission Honduras Sendoff

MISSION HONDURAS SENDOFF

Today is the sendoff for Mission Honduras.  A team of 35 people will travel to a mission established outside the Honduras capital.  Alissa Schipper, Gehlen Catholic’s director of Campus Ministry, has been organizing these sendoffs for over a decade.

 

Joci Roder is a missioner who went last year

 

Kate Bonderson joins the team as a first time missioner

 

Their theme song this year is Be a Light by Thomas Rhett.

Among the missioners are 16 adults, and 19 students from several schools Gehlen, Le Mars Community, Remsen St Mary’s , Emmetsburg and Sioux City Heelan.  The group leaves immediately after the sendoff to Omaha, and they begin their journey tomorrow morning.
