Mommy and Me in Gerona

As many of you know, after talking with the parents in the community of Gerona, we learned that kids were beginning public school and were already so far behind. This sparked the idea of a Preschool in the community of Gerona! Donors have helped us to start this preschool, and there are currently 20 kids in the program. The kids are already learning so much! 

Another request from teachers was to help parents learn how to be a part of their child's education. So, another idea was formed: a Mommy and Me training. The Calvary team helped set up Mommy and Me and led it this past week. We were so excited to see that not only did moms show up, but dads did too! See the video below.



We are so thankful for Calvary's ministry this past week, and we are so thankful for the child sponsors who are making the Gerona Preschool possible! We still have several kids in need of sponsors. Click here to see a list of these children.

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 hair.  We quickly realized that
