For years, other ministries have asked us to help them start programs like ours in other countries.
This last year the doors began opening. One door is to start work in Romania.
We prayed and received a clinic for Romania. The clinic is just like the others we have in Honduras. They are setup as a family practice. We are working with the local ministries to find a place for the clinic that would lend the best Kingdom benefit of medicine and ministry.
Please pray with us for the provision of land, funding and staffing of this clinic and church. We are planning a trip to Romania to finalize the location and start work duplicating the programs we have in Honduras. We will be working to serve God reaching the poor of Romania. We are praying for teams to come be a part of this next chapter of Heaven’s Reach Ministries as the work in Honduras continues.

Child poverty is high and rising,“ European Commission said in its latest country report on Romania.Nov 22, 2018.

Newsletter September 2017: Celebrating Day of the Child
Prayer request: God is an awesome God. And He is our provider.
We are asking for fervent prayer for our budget. The clinic is costing $3,500 a month. $1,500 of that is paying the doctor, nurse and the clerical person that serve the patients. The rest goes to medicine and supplies. We are blessed to have the wonderful staff that is a great part of the workings of this ministry. They would volunteer if they could however they all have expenses and need income. In Honduras they have Aguinaldo which is two months out
of the year, June and December where they get payed double. This is one of those months. We have been making up for the shortfall of our budget where we can. God has given us special gifts to get by the last few months.
We thank everyone who is a monthly partner of HRM. We believe that God is wanting to share the blessing of being a part of this ministry with more of you. If you are not a monthly partner this is the time and the opportunity for you to became a part of Heaven’s Reach Ministries by giving $50 to $100 per month we can reach our goal of $3,500 for this clinic. If you want to give a onetime gift we need $5,000 to make it through this month and meet our obligations.

small gifts to the patients. prenatal care with ultrasounds
We also distributed equipment and supplies to 4 hospitals d 3 clinics beyond our own and received our second clinic that will open in 2017.
We have been given an other ‘Clinic in a Can’. This is a 40ft container that has been made into a medical clinic. It will provide permanent & consistent healthcare for those that cannot otherwise receive it. The clinic has 2 exam rooms, a lab, and a procedure room.
It comes almost completely equipped with exam tables, lab equipment, lights, a procedure chair, maternal/fetal monitor, plumbing and electric.
What does this mean?
A permanent and stationary clinic for men, women and children in Intibucá, Honduras to come to 5-7 days a week.
It will allow us to perform needed lab tests and physical exams that are needed to treat not only immediate illnesses but chronic illnesses.
We will be able to give prenatal care.
We can have periodic dental clinics using the procedure room.
We can perform stitches or minor surgical procedures.
We will be able to provide medications for not only colds and minor illnesses but for chronic health conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and hypothyroidism.
We will be able to have a continuous impact on the health of the poor of Honduras.
We will be able to share the love of Jesus with every patient we see.
Why is this important?
The maternal mortality rate is 100 per 100,000, which means that in 2010 there were 8,046 women that died during pregnancy or after delivery. Of this statistic most of these women come from the impoverished communities of Honduras due to lack of nutrition, prenatal care and lack of medical care.
The mortality rate of children under the age of 5 is 23 out of 1,000 births. Which means that in 2012 there were 5,000 children that died under the age of 5.
9.9% of infants born are born with low birth weight, which means 20,493 babies were born with low birth weight from 2008-2012.
The Gross National Income for Honduras is $2,070 vs the GNI of the USA $52,610.
(Statistics are from UNICEF, Dec 2013 & World Health Organization)
What do we need you to do?
We need prayer for this clinic to improve the lives of the Hondurans by improving healthcare, longevity of life, and quality of life and that the love of Jesus will be shown.
We need $6,000 by November 17th to ship the clinic from the states to Honduras on December 1, 2014.
