Casita Adonai is a Christian School in Guatemala City that Caroline's Promise partners with. The Wesleyan Church there, Iglesia Adonai is doing a great job, ministering in this difficult community and Casita Adonai is one of their main outreaches. Many of the children come from single parent homes or live with their grandparents. It is difficult for most to pay the tuition but they are desperate to keep their children out of the public schools where they become targets for local gangs.
We recently visited Casita Adonai to lay the foundation for a child sponsorship program. We were blessed to find that the church, school and parents are not sitting around, waiting on Americans to help them. They are using their gifts and creativity to raise funds for Casita and they are creating community through the process!
The teachers and parents worked together to have their Annual "Mercado". The parents provided special food for purchase and the teachers and children presented a wonderful program! They even had a contest where tickets were sold as votes to determine the King and Queen of the school!
God continues to bless this program and we are thrilled to be a part!
