This morning, Steve Hinds, one of our paritioners at Christ Church, Denver began his 2-day journey to Honduras with his 1942 twin-engine Beech filled with medical and other supplies for the relief effort.

Among his cargo are several large boxes of seed packets that will be delivered directly to Bishop Frade for distribution.
