We are so proud of the work Elena Perez is doing to get our new office opened in San Pedro Sula. The office has come a long way from when it was just an idea discussed with the Department of Education authorities of San Pedro Sula back in April. Elena has already been representing Friends United in different ways, but especially at a conference this week of those organizations who work to better education in Honduras Bravo, Elena! So excited to see you and the office in July!

Para nuestros amigos en Honduras, quiero compartir esta mensaje desde la hija de Carlota! Carlota está en hospital, pero está mejorando ahora. Ella tiene 90 años pero es una mujer con mucha determinación de pelear para buena salud. Por favor, diga a otras que ella necesita muchas oraciones de todos de sus amigos en Honduras. Gracias! 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Final update to this post. Mom is now in room 1081at NKC Hospital (Pavillion side)...On the road to recovery!

UPDATE 1/13/26
It has been an emotional journey, but we are happy to say mom is doing really well this morning! We really thought we were going to lose her Sunday night, but mom is doing her best to heal and overcome this. It is a lot on a 90 year old lady, but she is a trooper. She is still in the ICU at NKC Hospital, but there is a chance she will be moved out soon. Dad is doing good through this, but it is wearing him out. We are making him stay home and rest today. Thank you to everyone who has reached out with support. It is appreciated.

UPDATE ON MOM.. Charlotte Reece Ruoff . She is out of surgery. It was a long surgery. She had multiple clots in both legs. There was a risk she could lose a leg but prayers were answered! Thank you to everyone that reached out and/or prayed. It was and still is appreciated. She is now in the ICU for close monitoring.

prayers would be appreciated for my mom. she is headed to surgery for clot in groin and leg.
