A Day To Remember


$60 for McDonald’s
$40 for Ice cream
$20 for hair braids and bracelets
A day for kids to be kids.....    PRICELESS!!!!


 On Wednesday we took the fifth grade class to Antigua for the day.  We visited several historic sites, took a tour of the Jade Factory, ate lunch at McDonald's and played.  We spent time in the park where the girls had their hair braided and our guys bought bracelets for the boys.  Before we left they took a carriage ride and had ice cream.  It was an amazing day to say the least!
 We were all impacted by their excitement.  It was often overwhelming to just watch them being kids.  Most of them never have the opportunity to leave the city and just play.  When asked what their favorite part of the day was, most said "Playing frisbee" with the team.  One girl said "Just spending the day with you."  The general consensus at the end of the day is that we will make this an annual event.  We are blessed to invest in them and ask you to join us in praying that God will send others from the church to invest in them once we leave.

Where are they now? Sthefany

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...

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...
