8th year project! (Active Now)
No matter what you face in life
Focus on The Mission to Share The Gospel!
Our daughter Zaza Evangeline
Born January 14, 2018 and lived 11 days. We held her in our hands as she took her last breath on earth and entered Heaven.
The Projects
As parents, instead of being depressed and dreading her birthday and home-going every year, we pray and choose a special project and invite friends, family, and ministry partners to join us in completing. Each project is unique and we have seen God do the miraculous through them!
Focused on The Mission
As Christians, above all else and even through the tough things in life, we choose to stay focused on The Mission to share the message of Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ with as many people as possible. The ultimate goal for each project is to facilitate this happening.
THIS YEAR'S PROJECT - 2026
BUILD a SCHOOL for a poor, primitive tribe!
(Historic Opportunity to plant the Gospel!) Total Goal: Only $6500
The Tribe
Classified as an unreached people group, the Tolupan tribe live in the Montana de la Flor region of Honduras. They are a VERY primitive tribe isolated in the autonomous zone of this mountain range. They have their own language and don't trust outsiders.
However, we had great success last year building their very own church. It was the first church in the history of the Rincon village! Building upon that success, the relationships created, and the trust we have earned... we have been requested to come back and build a Christian school!
Our Story
This is truly the hand of God at work. It was such an honor to build the Tolupan tribe of the Rincon village their very own church last year (2025). It truly was a dream come true.
Now, to have this opportunity once again to further make an impact in their lives for the Kingdom of God is truly remarkable.
Our daughter in heaven, Zaza, would have been eight years old. She would be attending school. What a gift it is to be able to provide a school for poor, remote, tribal children this year!
Goal
We will build a brand new school building for the Tolupan tribal people deep in the mountains of Honduras. It will be a good one, too!
Make History With Us: Let's provide a Christian education to the forgotten, poor children!
Bonus: Feed The Hungry will provide meals for the kids as an ongoing long-term ministry effort to meet the needs of Soul, Spirit, Body.
Note: the feeding program has already begun.
Impact
This is a very unique opportunity to make a real difference on earth for the Kingdom of God. If you've ever traveled to a remote location like this, you'd know that these communities are often deeply steeped in ungodly traditions and superstitions. Long-term education is a necessary step in helping them understand the Bible and what it says.
That's why this opportunity to build a school is vitally important to make happen while the door is open!
Partnership with Feed The Hungry USA
We are partnering with Feed The Hungry (FTH) once again. In years past we have fed children around the world, built a playground in Nicaragua, and built a church for the Tolupan tribe. They are fantastic and a highly valued ministry partner. FTH has already established a feeding program in this area which will be part of the school program.
Are We Visiting The Location?
As you can imagine, it's not the easiest place in the world to get to. However, Joshua is planning to personally visit the school build project later this year and do ministry in Honduras as well.
To the Ends of The Earth...
Let's make history and generational impact within the primitive Tolupan tribe of Honduras by building the children their very own school!
How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” - Romans 10:14-15
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come” - Matthew 24:14

"The Backstory"
HOW THE DOORS OPENED FOR US TO BUILD THIS sCHOOL...
The Bible says one person sows and another reaps. Apostle Paul said, "The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service..."
The hunger for God’s Word and the desire to know more about Him has continued to grow in the hearts of the people. Now, there is an opportunity to build upon the foundations already laid through the trust we have built and the relationships we have made. This opportunity comes in the form of building a school for the Tolupan children. Through this school we can provide an education and instill Christian principles into the youth. This is HUGE because this will certainly make a long-lasting impact in the lives of people who were once considered poor outcasts with no education.
In addition to the school, our ministry partner Feed The Hungry is committed to providing a feeding program in conjunction with the school. Think about this for a minute... education, Christian principles, and food. Spirit, Soul, and Body. This is our (and your) chance to really be a part of something that matters. Something totally unique. Something to be proud of. Something that affects real lives and is the Gospel in action! Please consider giving to this amazing, historic, opportunity!

PICTURES OF LAST 3 YEARS PROJECTS BELOW
Tolupan Church Build Project 2025...
(last year)
Last year we built the very first church in the history of the Tolupan tribe in the Rincon village deep in the remote mountains of Honduras. It was historical and a massive success! (donate to the NEW PROJECT now click here)
Enjoy some of the pictures of the church build.
Island Bible Project 2024...
Two years ago we saturated an entire Island with Bibles!
The headmaster at the school even asked for 10 Bibles for the only school on the island. He quickly implemented reading the Bible every day into the daily school activities! (donate to the NEW PROJECT now click here)
Enjoy some of the pictures of Bible distributions, preaching, and praying for the people on the island.
Playground Project Nicaragua 2023... (3 years ago)
Each year we are amazed at the impact we are able to have through these projects. Each year has been a massive success!
Join us again this year... (donate to the NEW PROJECT now click here)
From the beginning, when our daughter Zaza died 8 years ago, we made a decision that we would use the experience as an opportunity to bless others. We didn't know exactly what that would look like. Today, we look back at the pictures from all the projects and can clearly see God is a Good God. As we have tried to bless others, it seems as though we are the one's who are most blessed by these projects. As you give to these projects, we hope you feel the same as we do... blessed to be a blessing. Hopefully these pictures, as you look at the faces and into their eyes, will give you a sense of the eternal happiness and joy you are bringing to others! Thank you
As you can see, we deliver.
DONATE TO THIS YEAR'S PROJECT 2026!
Ask God what He would have you give!
LET'S BUILD THIS SCHOOL!
