Dear Friends,

Ok, gonna’ rip the bandaid…

If you’ve been following our blog you likely know that we have signed up to work here for another year, after realizing God still has us where he wants us for now.

Our ministry is changing lives by meeting medical needs in a rural Honduras community, by educating the children, by providing homes to children who have been abandoned or abused, and most importantly by sharing Hope.  Check it out at:   www.crstone.org    Check this video out, this is really awesome:  RIGHT HERE DUDE  and here’s another:  ANOTHER

We need help.  Maybe your help…  We are looking for about 40 more people to commit to supporting us monthly at about $100 per month.

Here are some of our specific needs:

• Prayers–for the Honduran people we serve, for Ryan to be a competent and compassionate physician, For Heidi to be an effective teacher, for our kids to be a blessing to the local Honduran children.  For our Spanish skills to improve.  For safety, and stamina.
• We are looking for people to help us organize some get-togethers with others who might be interested in joining our support team.  Whether it is small group meetings, dinners, church settings, coffee, beer shoppe, prison, etc…  We don’t care, we’ll meet you anywhere.
• Personal Financial support
• Vehicle–we hope to raise enough support to buy a vehicle to use while we are here, and that we will donate to the Hospital permanently.  Reliable transportation in Honduraras is very important, and difficult to find.

Top 10 Reasons to support us:

1. You feel a call to be a part of this heart-changing ministry but don’t have the ability to come down here in person.
2. You love children and want to help alleviate their suffering
3. You want to help support a hospital that generates scores of jobs for local Hondurans
4. You believe in improving a culture by providing education.
5. You believe that Love is an action (check out “Love does” by Bob Goff…)
6. You like us. You really like us…
7. You don’t like us, and you want to make sure we stay down in Honduras for as long as humanly possible
8. You feel sorry for us
9. You need a good tax write off/you are trying to impress your accountant
10. You just can’t think of anything better to do with your Lotto jackpot winnings…

If you want to find out more about this ministry before you make a decision, we will be back in the states mid-September and would love to sit down and share with you what we’re doing. Please let us know if we can connect with you.

If you think you are ready to jump into this partnership, go to this link, which takes you to our ‘Get Involved’ page on this blog website:  Get Involved.  More directly, you can go straight to the donate link, at the Christian health service corps site:  HERE!   We are hoping to partner with supporters who can commit to the next year with monthly giving. However, one time donations are greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading this whole page! We understand you may already be committed to supporting other causes, so please don’t feel any pressure about this.  We firmly believe God will make it clear if this is for you.

Blessings Friends,

The Moultray Family

This was my lovely 96 yr old lady that I saw today, who graciously consented to let me take her photo. I asked her what her secret to longevity was, and she said: papayas… naw, I just made that up. I couldn’t understand what she said. guess I’m gonna die young.

This was my buddy at the Rio Coco beach, Eriol. He was trying to put me in the right place to find some fish. We came up short this time, unfortunately.
