At-Risk Elderly Ministry called “Grandparents of Casa de Luz”

The nation of Honduras has a severe limitation of access to basic resources -such as food and medicine- for the elderly, disabled, or mentally challenged adult. We come alongside elderly members of the community who do not have dependable access to food, medicine, or personal hygiene products and provide these basic resources so that the elderly can age with dignity and not shame.  

In the process of meeting critical physical needs, we build relationships and engage in spiritual care with each grandpa and grandma. Our ministry to the elderly satisfies both physical and spiritual hunger among some of the most vulnerable members of society.

Widow Care and Support

Widows and women facing difficult circumstances often carry the burden of meeting their families’ needs while navigating life without the support of a spouse. At Casa de Luz, we seek to honor God’s call to care for widows and those in need by coming alongside women who lack dependable access to basic necessities.

Through this program, we provide a monthly food provision to help meet an essential physical need and offer consistent spiritual and emotional companionship. More than meeting a material need, we build meaningful relationships with each woman, reminding her that she is seen, valued, and not alone.

By walking alongside these women with practical support, prayer, encouragement, and friendship, we seek to reflect God’s heart for widows and those who are vulnerable, providing care that strengthens both their physical and spiritual well-being.
