Shoes & Athletic Court Construction
We got an email from Tyler, our semester missionary in Choluteca, regarding what the church would like us to bring. Based on what he shared, our goal will be to bring 500 pairs of shoes and $6,000 to build a new athletic court for the school. If you would like to help with either of these projects, please let us know.
From Tyler:
1.) I asked to see if there was something better we could bring besides shoes, but Nelson is very adamant that shoes are a vital/special thing that only the Rock brings down. A pair of shoes are an immediate bump up in social class, a smile on your face and joy in your heart. A boost in self-confidence, so in fewer words, lets stick with shoes, and keep bringing them.
2.) The new auditorium construction is coming up soooo fast, you are going to be amazed when you come. That being said the old court had to be torn up and they need money for a new one. Nelson suggested this might be a good project for you guys, not sure. The total cost is $9,000, but they have $3,000 so what they are looking is to see if maybe we could set out to raise $6,000 to pay for their new court "Cancha" an absolutely vital part of their school. (Take that coming from me, the current PE teacher giving classes without a court)
