Meeting foundational needs to realize our vision of seeing people experience God’s wholeness.
Our community work is made possible through the relationships our chaplains develop with community leaders, often pastors themselves. They work hand-in-hand to identify needs and services that Predisan can aid in to create a healthy and stable community. Once projects are identified, our chaplains often serve as supervisors, supporting the community-based team throughout the process.
We partner with communities to address vital educational and community wellness needs.
Predisan promotes not only expanding access to educational opportunities, but to raising community awareness of the importance of education to overall wellbeing and economic success.
Open to individual students and classes, the classrooms are equipped with printers, tablets, science lab equipment and more.
250 students are provided with scholarships to cover tuition, supplies, pastoral follow up, parenting education, medical and dental check ups, as well as psychological and spiritual counseling.
The healthcare needs of our region require our medical services to extend beyond our Predisan Christian Hospital. That’s why we regularly send medical teams out into the more remote areas of Olancho, often accompanied by visiting healthcare workers from the US. We also bring health services to schools in these areas, and train community leaders and our chaplains to refer people to the Predisan Christian Hospital.
Our school lunch project serves 10,085 students in 195 schools. Balanced, healthy meals are managed and prepared by parents, teachers, and community volunteers.
Dependable, consistent access to nutritional food is essential for individuals and communities to flourish. We focus not only on creating food security, but educating children and adults about the importance of a nutritional diet.
Our Vegetable Greenhouse project supplies vegetable seedlings to be distributed to communities and schools.
We visit remote schools to provide fluoride treatments, eye exams, vaccinations and more to students in the communities we serve.
Predisan seeks to empower communities with the knowledge they desire to improve their health, their financial stability, and their ability to advocate for the needs in their community. Our leadership training workshops help community leaders build the skills they need to organize and develop their communities, be better financial stewards, and identify and develop projects critical to community health and wellbeing.
We work with community pastoral leaders and churches to strengthen a biblical worldview, proclaim the Good News of Jesus, and collaboratively address the holistic needs of the communities we serve.
Our infrastructure projects focus on helping communities build foundational needs that impact overall health and economic opportunity.
Clean water is an essential component to a healthy community. We assist in a variety of projects including water filters, wells, and toilets/latrines.
In the remote, rural hills and jungles of Olancho, passable roads and bridges are lifelines that provide access to economic opportunity, healthcare, and education.
In under resourced communities, school facilities often go unserviced. We support these communities’ efforts to renovate school buildings and classrooms to remove barriers to education.
Electricity can be unreliable in the remote communities we serve, so we collaborate with them to identify opportunities for renewable energy solutions.
Begun in 1987 in a small classroom, the GSMC has grown into a 24/7 medical center occupying almost 2.5 acres, and serving a population of 180,000.
Since 1988, the Center for Rehabilitation of Patients with Addictions (CEREPA) has helped thousands of people from Central America and the U.S. to overcome substance abuse through our residential recovery program.
The foundation of Predisan’s spiritual development work is our network of chaplains, serving our staff, patients, and communities.

🏃♀️🏃♂️ Hundreds of children, teens, and young people came together in Dulce Nombre de Culmí and Cuyamel for two inspiring days filled with energy, teamwork, and hope for our "Run for Your Life" marathons.
Through our Vida Plena Prevention Program, which continues to create spaces where young people can connect, and discover their potential, these events encourage healthy choices, strong values, and a future free from drugs, reminding young people to say yes to life and no to drugs!
A heartfelt thank you to the schools, teachers, local authorities, volunteers, and every participant who made these marathons unforgettable. Together, we're investing in a generation filled with purpose, hope, and opportunities for a brighter future.

Take a look at these photos…
They tell the story of parents, Predisan staff, and volunteers working side by side to make a difference.
Thanks to the generous support of New Hope Church, students at Carlos A. Galeano School in Santa María del Real, Olancho, received a beautifully renovated dining area along with five newly painted picnic tables, creating a welcoming place to enjoy their meals.
The impact didn't stop there. Together, the students and volunteers planted trees around the school, and because space was limited, many children took a tree home to plant with their families.
This is what happens when communities come together: partnership transforms spaces, and lives. 🌱✨

🌍Every World Cup Dream Starts Somewhere
For many children in rural Honduras, soccer is more than a game, it’s a passion! ⚽
This year, a team from The Park Church of Christ held a soccer clinic in San Antonio, and every child that participated received a brand-new pair of cleats, giving them the opportunity to play with confidence and joy. Throughout the week, they not only developed their skills on the field but also learned about the love of Jesus through lessons in teamwork, integrity, generosity, and perseverance.
At the same time, another team invested in the community by renovating the school's restroom and handwashing facilities, demonstrating God's love through practical service.
At Predisan, we believe transformation happens when we care for both people and communities. A simple pair of cleats can build confidence. An act of service can strengthen a community. And sharing Christ's love can change a life forever. ❤️
