Giving Thanks For Denny and Southern Heights Church

Cheryl Kuney • September 8, 2025

We are deeply indebted to Denny Boersema and Southern Heights Church in Kalamazoo, Michigan, for their ongoing partnership with Gathering Hearts for Honduras.


Denny has faithfully invested in our teachers—training, encouraging, and walking alongside them in both their professional growth and their walk with the Lord. Since many of our teachers are not professionally trained, having Denny—a seasoned educator—pour into them has been an incredible answer to prayer. In his own words, “I spent a lot of time one-on-one with the teachers about their teaching habits.”


But Denny’s impact goes even further. He has built meaningful relationships with both teachers and students, inspiring them to pursue education and deepen their faith. Over the years, Denny has made 31 trips to GHH—helping with construction, teaching in our church (Templo Evangelical Emmanuel), and equipping young people with skills they might otherwise never have the chance to acquire. Truly, his sacrificial time and commitment are a treasure to this community and Gathering Hearts for Honduras.

We are also grateful to Southern Heights Church for funding food distributions in some of the most impoverished areas of Honduras. With the help of Pastor Nelson Osorto, Consuelo (our nurse), and church elders, food has been delivered to remote villages—many of which are home to our church plants. Meeting these physical needs opens the door to share the hope of Christ, as the love of Jesus is shown in both word and action.


Thank you for standing with us as we continue to bring education, hope,

and the Gospel to Northwest Honduras.

A Team on Mission: Faith, Healing & A Bold Witness In June, a mission team from Christ Presbyterian Church in Tulsa, OK returned to Honduras—many of them veterans of past trips—to serve both medically and spiritually in the villages. Their hearts for the people of Honduras were on full display as they poured themselves out through long hours of ministry, even serving one day without power. Some team members ventured out to a remote, impoverished village to bring medical help and the message of Christ. Others stayed behind to treat patients at our mission center. Everywhere they went, they carried the Gospel.
