On January 31, 2017, we received with great joy our first 250 children who make up the first promotion of our Boystown — in Spanish Villa de los Niños — in Amarateca, Honduras.
Our children have come from all over Honduras, holding nothing more than a plastic bag as luggage.

During their orientation, the children received a presentation of the Sisters of Mary, and the Boystown.
Each child received with great joy their new backpack, school uniform and sportswear.

On their first day, the children also enjoyed their first meals with the Sisters. Many of our children will now be eating three healthy meals a day for the first time in their life.
