Communities in Honduras where we work
Aanglidesh is the social arm of the Episcopal Church, committed to self-sustainability in the diocese and in the lives of needy families. It's purpose is to create programs, which empower people and improve their living conditions, holistically and according to Christian principles.
The Episcopal Church of Honduras, , out of a deep concern for the ordinary family and a Christian commitment to the poor, established an organization called 'Luz en el Camino' (A Light for the Way) on August 15, 2002. The next year, in February, it began operations under its current name, Aanglidesh (Agencia Anglicana para Desarollo de Honduras or the Anglican Agency for the Development of Honduras).
Aanglidesh works in the rural areas of Honduras, especially in those communities, which belong to our deanaries (i.e. our church districts). In these communities, many Honduran families are barely surviving. They struggle daily for the basics: food, shelter, health and jobs. In a country, where more than half of the population lives below the poverty level, the Episcopal Church and Aanglidesh are bringing a ray of light into the lives of many people.
