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.

Next Ship Date-June 11th
We will be shipping the next container on June 11th. Our container will consist of mainly doors and windows. We have also had many people donate used clothing, toys, and household items for this shipment. In January, a lady who owns a local bridal shop donated around 45 wedding dresses she used as samples in her shop. We were able to put them in a consignment shop and have made around $1000 from the proceeds so far. This has enabled us to buy new undergarments and a great deal of new clothing and shoes for the orphanage. A month ago, the warehouse seemed empty, but God has used his people to fill it up just in time for Bro. Doss to give us the "go" to ship the container. Thank you for your continued prayers and support to this ministry!

The Container Arrived!
Thank you for your prayers! The container arrived at the orphanage this past Friday! Bro. Doss said it was packed from top to bottom which means they did not unpack it as they usually do. This is an answer to prayer. After finally clearing up the paperwork issues, the container was released. However, as it was on its way to the orphanage, the truck drivers decided to go on strike. The container sat on the road for days. Praise the Lord it finally made it in time for Christmas! Now it is time to begin preparing for the spring container. Please continue to pray that Bro. Doss will be able to get the paperwork to receive the containers tax free. Also, we are looking into the possibility of shipping the containers as a cheaper price. Pray this all works out for the benefit of this ministry.

The Container Has Been Shipped!
Praise the Lord! Saturday we were able to load the container. We had about 20 people who came out to help load. Thank you to every one who came! The shipment includes Christmas gifts for all the children at the orphanage, the workers, and the pastor's families. It also includes the personal items of two missionary families, the Birkholz family and the Jarvis family, who are going to Honduras to help Bro. Doss at the orphanage.
A special thank you to each one of you have contributed monetarily and/or with your prayers. God has used so many people to help bring this shipment to pass. The container is scheduled to reach port in Honduras on November 10th. Please continue to pray that the shipment will pass through customs without excessive fees and that the container will arrive at the orphanage in time for Christmas!
