The Micah House



Dinner on the patio at Micah



The Micah house is the home to fifteen young boys, ages 13-19 plus at least one staff member that stays with them. It is a safe haven for the boys who have grown up on the streets or in impoverished homes. The Micah Project strives for the boys to become Christian leaders through discipleship, formal education and opportunities to serve others who are in need. The goal is to support these young men as they learn to “act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with their God” (Micah 6:8). While we were there the house was always abuzz with energy. There were often people on the patio playing soccer, wrestling or engaging in some other lively activity. In the den the boys can chill out by watching movies, and often someone was playing guitar or talking as well. The kitchen was busy with several amazing women cooking amazing food for MANY people. It is hard to find a quiet space amidst the small rooms. Which is why it will be amazing once Micah 2.0 is built!! The Micah project has the money to purchase 7 acres of beautiful land . . . once they are finished jumping through bureaucratic hoops! The land will allow them to have more room, maybe a separate school room, a place for the technical school, where the boys learn wielding and carpentry, staff housing, and lots of room for the boys to run! Plus the land is located in a small community, unlike their current inner city location. This would help to safeguard the boys from the draw to go back to the streets, hopefully keep the Micah house and van from being vandalized and in addition be a blessing to the community and these boys are strong and hardworking. Please pray for Micah 2.0 journey, and the teams that will go to Honduras to help build this dream into a reality.
