Our Little Roses Foreign Mission Society Moves to Miami
Dear Friends,
We want you to be the first to
know that Our Little Roses Foreign Mission Society, the U.S.-based
501(c)(3) whose mission is to increase support and awareness for Our
Little Roses Ministries in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, has moved to Miami.
Here's our new address and contact information:
Our Little Roses Foreign Mission Society Inc.
525 NE 15th St., Suite 100
Miami, FL 33132-1411
Ph: 305.401.0378

Let me also introduce myself. In
November, following Beverley Allison's unexpected passing, Bishop Leo
Frade, chairman, and the board of directors of OLRFMS asked me to serve
as Acting Executive Director of OLRFMS to ensure that the important work
of securing support for Our Little Roses Ministries in Honduras
continued.
Our efforts these last several
months have focused on relocating the office to Miami with the planned
sale of the property on which the offices were located. We ask your
patience and understanding as we move through this transition. Please
feel free to call or email us if you have any questions.
At the same time, we also say goodbye and thank-you to Betty Lou Roberts and Joanne Matthews,
who worked closely with Beverley and served OLRFMS for 13 and 19 years,
respectively. Both have done a tremendous job over the years and have
worked especially hard these last several months to prepare the Virginia
office for closing and moving to Miami.
Joining me in Miami as Development Services Manager is Katrina Davey. You can reach her at 305.401.0378 or at OLRFMS@ourlittleroses.org. Katrina
brings a wealth of experience from her years at United Way-Miami and,
most recently, Friends of Trinity Cathedral, Miami.
Finally, as we celebrate the 25th
Anniversary of Diana Frade's founding of Our Little Roses in San Pedro
Sula, the board of OLRFMS has adopted several goals intended to secure a
strong financial foundation for Our Little Roses Ministries --
expanding the number of sponsors, increasing general support and
expanding the number of regional special events. Each of these goals
ultimately ensures a secure financial foundation to meet the ongoing and
pressing needs and services of the ministry -- and the girls.
Words are not enough to thank you
for your support. I look forward to working with you in the months and
years ahead as together we continue to support the vital work of Our
Little Roses Ministries in Honduras.
God's peace and blessings!
Cheryl
