And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands.
As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love

Thank you for visiting our page.  Jenny and I (Matt) are excited to share with you our story as we try our hardest to follow God's leading in our lives.  This Page is for people who love Children and want to reach kids who are at-risk and abandoned.  God has put on our hearts a desire to serve the neglected and abandoned children of Honduras through World Gospel Outreach (WGO).  We are looking for people who want to partner with us accomplishing this mission

WGO exists to do three things well.
1. To serve and reach the poor for Christ.
2. To provide care for displaced or abandoned children.
3. To provide opportunities for the North American Church to experience the joy that comes through serving. 

Our family is doing this by serving at Rancho Ebenezer in Honduras. This children's home provides an oasis from the hardship these children have faced. The goal of this organization is to raise children to be Christ centered adults, who will be able to impact there country for Christ. Children are raise by Mentor Parents and counselors, who introduce the abandon children into a life of love and family. Children are given a bilingual education, English and Spanish, it a safe caring environment. Currently the Ranch provides home to about 25 children. This year the hope is to bring in 15 new children to the ranch. Please pray that God prepares each child for this incredible opportunity. 

This video gives a brief description of the minstry of Rancho Ebenezer, althought the role of House parents has been replaced with Mentor Parents.  Mentor parents live seperate from the children but serve the role of spiritual and emotional nurturers.  Day to day care is done by counselors in the home where the kids live.

 
 
Matt will be serving as Clinical Manager, in this role he will work to provide training and to all child care staff, like the House Parents Talked about in the video and the counselors.  The hope is that we can guarantee long term stability in the lives of these children who started life in instability.
