Leaside United team on charitable mission to Honduras

A nine-member team from Leaside United Church (LUC) is about to leave for Honduras where it will participate in charitable service work for the El Hogar project. The name means The Home and El Hogar has given thousands of Honduran children both a start in life and skills with which to make their way when they are grown. LUC members will.be accompanied by two additional members from Eastminster United Church. Team leader Neal Kelly has written to say that the team has been working for more than six months to raise money for their service  work — the  education of abandoned, orphaned and hopelessly poor children in Honduras. The remarkable decency of these volunteers starts when they pay their own airfare, which this year was $4,300 U.S. The LUC team will have two teens in its number. Members will arrive in Honduras on March 15. They are Lynda Miller, Darryl Bunt, Brenda French, Valerie Flynn,  Barbara Kinnear,  Carol Bennett,  Meleah Bennett, Sam Kelly and Neal Kelly
