2024 Water Filter News

Border Buddies Volunteers, Sid Spencer and Randy Lawrence, joined Mike and Glenda Miller for 8 days in September, to distribute water filters and Bibles to families in two mountain communities, outside Tegucigalpa, Honduras. A total of 473 filter kits, most with an accompanying Bible, were distributed throughout the trip. This happened along with the preaching of the Word, worship, and prayers for the needs of individuals and the community, led by Mike.
As is sometimes the practice in the mountains, a number of families shared some of the produce from their gardens with the team, as a “Thank You”. These gifts were accepted and passed on to needy families in the Comayagua Squatters Community that the team also visited.
Mike and Glenda’s work in Comayagua continues to thrive with both adults and children benefiting. The focus in Comayagua is on Bible Study, prayer and sharing the Word, and helping out with some material needs, within the community, including some student sponsorships for needy students.
Along with these team activities, Sid and Randy also had time to visit with the BBM sponsored school students that they individually sponsor. This, in some cases, included also visiting with other family members too!
It was a successful trip and both men are looking forward to doing it again, next year.

Here’s a video showing the preparation that was done in August 2024.

Editor’s remarks – THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to the Water Filter fund! We could not have done it without your support. Handing out 473 clean water filtration systems means many hundreds of people will have pure, clean, healthy water that will stop many of the maladies and sicknesses they experience. THANK YOU.
