Ladies' Group Helps Church Recover From Break In

Projector being used for the first time at Iglesia Adonai
Members of The S.T.A.N.D. (Sisters Touching A Need Directly) circle group from Shady Grove Wesleyan Church in Colfax, NC were troubled when they learned that our partner church in Guatemala City, Iglesia Adonai was broken into.  They lost over $2000 in equipment that is used for ministry at their church and in their church plant.  The ladies decided to do something and hosted their first 5k walk on June 2.

The church was blessed when one of our summer mission teams delivered the money and helped them purchase a new projector and portable sound system.  The members kept saying how blessed they were to have people in the US who cared enough to host a fundraiser to help them.

Thank you ladies from S.T.A.N.D and everyone who supported the 5K!  You are a beautiful example of how any group can make a huge difference for others!

I would really like to meet and know how my sponsors are and meet them in person and thank them personally.   And well, I think that these kinds of experiences make you grow as a person in all aspects and how wonderful that those kinds of people exist, s...

Mission team member's "idea" + Facebook Fundraiser = Jobs in San Nicolas

  Our last team to Guatemala was in November of 2019.  That seems impossible but it's true.   The primary focus of the team was a pediatric medical clinic that was hugely successful.  However, that wasn't the only seed that was planted that week in the community of San Nicolas.   Wanda King has been going to Guatemala with Caroline's Promise for years.  We can always count on her to bring hand sanitizer, goodie bags that she and her sister make for everyone, and lots of love!  One of the things I love most about Wanda is that she is willing to step in and do anything that is asked of her.  A few weeks before this trip she asked if she could bring a set of hair cutting supplies.  I didn't know if there was a need, but I knew that Wanda felt strongly that she should bring them and so I said "of course!"  Little did we know the impact that one idea would make.   Wanda spent most of that week teaching our partner, Monica how to cut...
