Our Little Roses Helps Create Lives These Girls
WHY TAKE A MISSION TRIP TO HONDURAS?
Our Little Roses Ministries is a very special place. We strive to help all of our supporters to build relationships with our girls and with our staff through our website, newsletters, and more. Still, there really is no substitute for a face-to-face visit.
Over the 30 years of our ministry, we have been blessed with visitors from all over the world who have given us the gift of their presence during a mission trip to Honduras. The excitement is palpable as the summer mission season approaches and the girls get ready to see returning friends and make new ones. Many mission teams return to us every year on an annual Honduras mission trip to show support for our girls as they grow up from vulnerable little girls to strong and educated young women.
Even on a short term mission, visiting us in Central America will be full of full of games, adventures, spiritual growth, and relationship building. We cook together, play together, worship together, and learn what it means to have extended family from different places but with a shared love.
Take action. Get involved. Give back.
Let us help you find the best time of year to travel and to design a week that will be life-changing for you, your team, your family, and the girls of Honduras.

Where You’ll Stay
We have different options for our groups so that your time in Honduras is the perfect fit for you and your team.
Most of our groups stay in our on-site Mission Team B & B. This is optimal for spending the most time interacting with the girls of Our Little Roses. However, for larger groups, or if you prefer to stay off campus, there are many local hotels (we’re happy to assist with logistics). Another option is to split your time between San Pedro Sula and our Schilling-Weeks Retreat Center located in the Santa Barbara Mountains about an hour out of town.
Mission Team B & B
The Mission Team B & B is the most convenient option for groups visiting Our Little Roses. Our air-conditioned facility has four bedrooms with bunk beds which can sleep up to 35 guests. There are three bathrooms each equipped with hot water, two toilet stalls, two sinks, and two showers. The kitchen area includes a small refrigerator with water and snacks supplied. There is cable t.v. and a computer with internet available (WiFi code will be supplied to team leader).
On-Site Apartment
For single travelers, or for additional space for groups we have an apartment onsite. This private, air conditioned, one-bedroom apartment is equipped with a full kitchen and has cable t.v. and available WiFi.
Schilling-Weeks Retreat/ Training Center
The Schilling-Weeks Retreat/Training Center at Pueblo Nuevo, Santa Barbara is used for spiritual retreats by the girls and staff. It is also available for rent by visitors to the area seeking a comfortable place to stay. The Center is perfect for business/professional meetings as well as for retreats, mission teams working in the area, and local community or individual celebrations. Located in a more remote area approximately an hour outside of San Pedro Sula and slightly higher up the mountains, the retreat center offers an atmosphere of peace that invites periods of meditation, reflection, and relaxation.
The addition of a generator provides continuous electricity. In-room air conditioners create a cool and comfortable space night or day. Our beautiful organic garden provides fresh fruit and vegetables for the Home and the marketplace.
For more information or to schedule a stay at the Schilling-Weeks Retreat/Training Center, contact Mayra Arguelles at OLR.Honduras@ourlittleroses.org
Local Hotels
Some of our groups prefer to stay at local hotels. As Our Little Roses Ministries is in no way affiliated with these local establishments we hesitate to recommend. We are happy to pass along referrals from other mission teams upon request.
