My first visit to the Micah Project (located in Tegucigalpa, Honduras) was in 2011. Never before had I so tangibly witnessed God’s redemption. This organization is literally reaching into the lives of society’s least of the least and through the power of the gospel is changing lives. Boys who’ve grown up on the city’s streets with gang violence and drug addiction are being transformed. They’re learning they have a Heavenly Father who treasures them and through the Micah staff and missionaries, they now have an earthly family who love them too. They are nurtured physically, emotionally, spiritually and educationally. Many of the boys go on to college. The success rate at Micah is beyond the norm due to their modeling of Gods never ending grace. It is a family that I am blessed to be a part of as a volunteer, donor, Board member, and race director of an annual 5k fundraiser for Micah.
The Micah Project is a non-profit organization in Tegucigalpa, Honduras that has two group homes for young men and boys, an outreach to street children and a variety of other ministries to the neediest people in the city. The young men in our group homes, all of whom spent anguished childhoods on the streets or in impoverished homes, are now learning to become Christian leaders through discipleship, formal education and opportunities to develop their talents by serving others. Our goal is to support these young men as they learn to “act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with their God.” (Micah 6:8).
