Welcome to the Honduras San Pedro Sula East Mission!
Our missionaries are engaged in a marvelous work! Our purpose is to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost and enduring to the end.
We look forward to sharing our experience and those of the missionaries with you on this site. Thank you for your sacrifice and support of the great missionary effort here in Honduras. Please check back often for updates of the work as we share the fruits of our labors.

The preferred method for shipping parcels to your missionary from the United States is ALWAYS the US Postal Service "International Priority Mail". Your package will usually be delivered to the mission office within two weeks with NO ADDITIONAL duties or taxes due. The USPS will provide you with a tracking number. Please feel free to contact us with the tracking number on any parcels not delivered within a month. Parcels shipped during the Christmas season should be shipped no less than six weeks early. Please keep in mind, after we receive your missionary's parcel in the office, we need to reship it or deliver it to your missionary. Since virtually none of our missionary residences have a physical address, it is impossible for you to ship your parcels directly to your missionary.
PLEASE DO NO USE any of the expedited shipping services such as FedEx, UPS, or DHL. Each of these carriers will always require a full Honduran customs inspection at which time they will usually charge a 100% tax of the retail value of the merchandise being shipped. It is also customary for the carrier to add additional storage fees while it is in customs and brokerage fees. The end result for you is considerable delays in delivery and huge additional expenses.
