Our First Summer Team Leaves Today!

Today the first of three teams departed Raleigh, NC for Guatemala City.  Caroline's Promise has partnered with Wilson Community Church for the past two years and we are excited to see them leading their own team (with a little help from CP Board Member, Tami Rumfelt)!  What a fantastic way for this smaller church to get their feet wet with short term missions!  We were able to train them and build trips around their specific gifts and desires. 

All of our teams focus on the dreams and needs of our partner church in Guatemala, Iglesia Adonai.  It is this model of partnership that we have found to be the most effective.  The Wilson Team will hit the ground running with a Women's Outreach Breakfast.  This has been a dream of Pastor Delmi Rivas for years.  The women of the church are decorating the building and each has been challenged to invite five ladies from their community who are not Christians.  There will be special music, an amazing breakfast, and a special message from our very own, Tami Rumfelt.  The focus of this event is evangelistic.  Will you pray with us that these women would understand how much Jesus adores them and that they would open their hearts to him?

On Sunday the team will assist in children's and adult ministries and spend the afternoon at a church that Iglesia Adonai is planting.  The rest of the week they will host a Vacation Bible School type program with the kids at Casita Adonai and spend their afternoons teaching adults English and tutoring kids who are struggling academically.  And let's not forget the zoo!  The preschool through Kindergarten classes will be treated to this special field trip!  We are excited about how God is going to work in and through this team in the next week.  Please keep them and the two teams that will follow, in your prayers.

Where are they now? Sthefany

Hello, my name is Sthefany.   I am 16 years old and am currently in the 4th year of high school in Biological Sciences.  First of all I want to thank the Groves Family who sponsored me during my primary school period because thanks to them I was able to complete primary school.  I am also very grateful because although I did not meet my sponsors, I appreciated them very much for the support and help they contributed in my life.   It was a great blessing that Caroline's Promise can contribute great things in the life of a person.  The experience I had was totally great. I got to know places thanks to them and they also showed me their love through letters (letters that I still have), gifts and financial aid. 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...

Where are they now? Cesy Samayoa

  Cesy, translating for Kaitlyn Our friend Cesy was too old to be in our child sponsorship program when we met her, but she definitely benefited from the program because two of her siblings were sponsored consistently.  And we benefited from knowing Cesy!  For years she would translate for our special programs.  I remember speaking to a group of moms years ago and Cesy translated for me.  She stayed for hours after the talk to help me minister to women.  One of those women had concerns about her son who clearly showed signs of ADHD.  Cesy helped me find natural ways to address his inattention and lack of focus and a year later that same Mom shared how Cesy's suggestions had helped! Cesy, we know how hard you have worked and we are incredibly proud of you!  Thank you for being a beautiful example to young women everywhere!
