Our church, Gloryland Baptist, in Birmingham, Alabama has a ministry called Central American Missions. This ministry in Honduras is through missionaries Ronnie and Joanne Doss who work very closely with Bro. Graham Hutson from our church. Bro. Doss runs an orphanage that has about 70 children. He also has a Bible Institute that educates national pastors for the ministry. One of the ways that we are able to help is to ship 40 foot containers several times a year with clothes, shoes, and supplies for the orphan home, workers, and national pastors who depend on Bro. Doss. The purpose of this website is to provide updates on ship dates for the container and to provide you with information about the needs of this ministry if you would like to donate items or contribute to this worthy cause. We hope you will prayerfully consider helping us as we accomplish this task.

Fall Shipment Updates!

We were delayed in sending a spring container and have made the decision to only send a container this fall.  Our warehouse tent is worn out from wear and tear and we are currently unable to store items under it due to the items getting wet because of leaks in the tent.  We have decided to purchase two 40-foot containers for storage instead of purchasing a new cover for the tent because it is more cost efficient.  We currently have a full container of items.  However, there are several specific needs the ministry has.  We also need to purchase all Christmas gift items for the children, workers, and pastors families.  Please see the list below of items needed at this time:

Answered Prayer!

The Lord has led Bro. Rick and Mrs. Julia Schenck to work with Bro. Ronnie and Mrs. Joann at the orphanage in Honduras.  They have already worked to establish family nights with the boys and are working to establish a clinic in their home.  They are also working on needed repairs at the orphanage.  To find out more about their calling and ministry, click here.
