Resurrected Jesus reveals himself to James: Bishop Brewer’s homily Oct. 23, 2014
Historically, the churches in the Diocese of Central Florida designate their Thanksgiving Offering to be used for mission in the Diocese of Honduras. This year Bishop Lloyd Allen, Bishop of Honduras since 2001, has asked our diocese to focus on a church with great potential, but in great need.
Before burglars and vandalism left their mark on the Church of the Transfiguration in the city of Guaimaca, Honduras, it was one of the church jewels of the Diocese of Honduras.
Not only were the Eucharistic vessels stolen, not only was the organ and guitar stolen, not only were two vital sewing machines stolen, but every wall plug, the florescent tubes and the wiring panel were stolen from this lovely church building. With the theft also came vandalism of the sanctuary itself with many windows broken.
The Rev. Dagoberto Chacon, Dean of the El Paraiso Deanery in the Diocese of Honduras, an area the Diocese of Central Florida has been asked to focus on, is pictured above with daughter, Angie, as he prepares to lead music and worship with the October 2014 Mission Team on Deacon Kathy Pennybacker’s patio.
Father Dago teaches team members, Father Brian Garrison and Mike Nolan how to strip a sugar cane to find the sweet parts to chew on.
Fathers Comforted, Dagoberto, and Bryan, assisted by Deacon Kathy prepare for Eucharist at the church in Zarzal, one of Father Dago’s churches.
