Con Oraciones Para Honduras (Prayers for Honduras)


COPAN RUINAS, Honduras (CNS) -- Oscar Garcia used to sell 100 pounds of tomatoes every day in the municipal market of this colonial town near the Guatemalan border. Since the June 28 ouster of President Manuel Zeyala, Garcia sells just 40 pounds of tomatoes and has to moonlight as a hotel security guard to support his family."I'm working day and night and it's barely enough," said Garcia, the father of four. "There are people here starving to death because of the political crisis."
