GUATEMALA MISSION

We build homes, hand out food baskets, minister in local churches, hold VBS for the kids, provide much needed supplies for the men and women, and much more. Our primary goal is not to meet physical needs but to reach people with the gospel and meet their greatest need! Were thankful to God for His faithfulness to provide for, direct, and bless this ministry and we look forward to many more trips in the future!
Where : the Country of Guatemala is located in Central America and has a population of about 17 million people which is about 3 times the population of the state of Indiana.
