Make a Difference for Mothers in Guatemala this Mother's Day

If you're looking for a great Mother's Day gift for your Mom, wife, or friend - we can help you out!
Caroline's Promise has a heart to prevent children from becoming orphans.  It's because of this goal that we have developed several programs that equip mothers to provide for their children so that they don't have to face the unthinkable choice of abandoning them.

In 2012, with the help of our friends and donors,  we were able to establish a Sewing Ministry in Guatemala City.  You can read about it here.  These ladies make and sell their product with a portion going into a savings account and a portion going to construction of the new building at the school & church.  We LOVE that they are more than willing to give to this project!  Caroline's Promise finds sponsors in the US who give $100 and combined with the money in their savings account, we are able to provide them with a brand new sewing machine, supplies, and a Women's Devotional Bible.

Our 2nd class will graduate in June and we are looking for people who will sponsor these precious Mamas at $50 or $100 each.   We think this is a great way to honor your Mom or wife on Mother's Day!  With each $50 or $100 sponsorship we will send your loved one a beautiful Card, telling her all about how you  honored her and how that gift is changing the life of a family in Guatemala!  To participate please donate online.  Choose the fund "Guatemala Orphan Projects" - $50 or $100 - and write "Sewing" in the comment box.  Please complete the acknowledgement info so that we know who to send the card to.




This beautiful "Hope" necklace is adjustable (up to 13") and is a fundraiser for our Hope Grows campaign to construct a building for a school and church in Guatemala City.  The necklace is $20 with $14.50 of that being a tax deductible donation to Caroline's Promise.  We also have key chains for $10 that say "Hope".
What a beautiful way to give HOPE to kids in Guatemala!
Order your here.




If you're looking for a gift that will make a difference - check out our fair trade gift items on our website.  These items are made by women from around the world who are paid a fair wage.  We use the profits to support our orphan projects here and in several countries.  Give your Mom a gift that was made by a Mom and is making a difference!

If you live in the Triad - visit our booth at The Spring Folly in
downtown Kernersville this Friday & Saturday, May 3 and 4.  We will be located close to the intersection of Main and Mountain Streets.

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!

Leaving for Guatemala in less than 8 hours!

Everyone is in a mad dash to get their carryons packed and catch some sleep before we depart at 3am! You read that right, 3 am! It's going to be a long travel day. We'll depart Colfax at 3am, drive to Raleigh, fly to Miami at 6:50am and arrive in Guatemala at 1 in the afternoon. After we collect ALL of our luggage (because you guys have prayed that it all arrives:) we'll load a bus and drive 3-4 hours to Eagle's Nest Children's Home. We appreciate your prayers as the first of 50 people go to Guatemala. Our second week begins July 5th. Specific requests for this first BIG team are unity, good health, safety, and that God blesses our time with kids in churches, schools, the community and at Eagle's Nest. Check out their blog at http://www.boggsministry.com/ We hope to update you daily but we're not quite sure how the internet access will be. Thanks for your prayers:)

$40 can send a teen to camp

  Words can't express how proud we are of the youth from Adonai Church in Guatemala City.  They have worked hard to develop a discipleship and outreach program that is amazing!  In addition, they have been raising funds to attend their high school aged camp November 25-27.  They began months ago by creating banks and teaching on the importance of saving.  From there they hosted a ton of fundraisers and have been able to raise the funds for their youth group to attend camp. Now they need our help!  They would love for 25 of the older teens from their Gerona church plant to attend camp as well.  The cost is $40 per teen and we're looking for a total of $1000. If you would like to partner with the Adonai Youth and support a teen from Gerona, please follow this link.  Thank you for helping us celebrate the Adonai Youth and their hard work, while making a way for the teens in Gerona to attend camp.
