Mountain of Hope

Montaña de Esperanza

In our years serving the Diocese of Comayagua, we have discovered the deep wounds Hondurans suffer, caused by injustice, abuse, and lack of resource and opportunities. There is a great need for formed leaders, faithful religious and priests, rooted in the firm assurance of God's great, sustaining love for His children. Young people, in particular, need a "reason to stay" to serve Christ in His people as radical disciples sent on mission.

In answer to this need, God has miraculously given the Missioners of Christ a piece of land in the mountains of Cabañas, La Paz, where we will create a place of refuge, peace, and healing. This Montaña de Esperanza or Mountain of Hope, will be a beacon of hope calling the young and families of Honduras, the US, and Central America to come as they are – to be healed, formed and restored to communion with God. Freed and formed, they will be sent to an apostolate of renewal all over Honduras and the Americas.

Our Future

God willing, we will build a healing and retreat center and a family and youth camp where formation, retreats, prayer, and accompaniment will take place. In beauty and silence, seminarians, priests, religious, youth, and families will have the opportunity to hear the voice of God calling him/her to Himself and giving them opportunity to discover his/her true identity and intention for his/her life.

HELP US BRING HOPE AND HEALING.

Please consider this opportunity to participate in the mission of making Christ and His love and healing known to people that are looking for a reason to hope, heal, and discover God's refuge and peace.

Updates

We have already finished 98% of construction of the Team cabin. The Team cabin has been a massive blessing providing a place of refuge and prayer for our summer mission teams including teams of priests, seminarians, families, and young adults. Currently, we are beginning the construction of two cabins for personal retreats and one family cabin.

The Adventure Begins

Life with Christ is a wonderful adventure.

WHERE THERE IS NOTHING BUT CALM, PEACE, REPOSE, SILENT CONTEMPLATION,
AND ADORATION OF THE RADIANT FACE OF GOD.”
