How the Northwest Athlete - Medical Team came to be

In the summer of 2016, 15 year old Cameron Holbrook shared how he felt that Caroline's Promise needed more men on their mission teams.  His heart was touched by the boys and young men he had met in Guatemala and he began to pray for men to catch a vision for the ministry. That Fall Cameron played football for the first time and met Coach Jared Rolfes who was not only a great coach but a follower of Jesus.  Cameron asked Coach Rolfes if he would be interested in taking a team of guys to Guatemala and that opened the door for Lisa to have several conversations with him.  We all laugh that Coach Rolfes turned Lisa down 3 times ! Kristi Clary at the medical clinic in Gerona Once he finally agreed to take a team, he invited Phillip Clary to join him.  In the weeks that followed, Phillip's wife, Kristi expressed an interest in going on what we thought would be an English teaching team at the same time.  Lisa remembered that Kristi was a nurse for a local ...

$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.  

Word of thanks from our youth leaders in Guatemala

In July our CP Camp team partnered with the leaders of Adonai Church to host a middle school camp for kids from 3 areas - Adonai Church, the community of Gerona, and kids from Casita Adonai School.  Many of you prayed and sponsored kids to make the event possible!  Thank you! Here are some photos as well as words of thanks from our youth leaders at Adonai Church.  Please continue to pray for them as they minister weekly. Peace and blessings from the Lord. We give thanks for each one of you who were moved to help us with our Camp for teenagers in July 2016. Our dream was to have a Camp teaching about "Living without Masks" like God calls us to live.   We are thankful for your support with all the supplies, workshops, games and prayers before and during Camp. Our heart finds joy and gratitude because we have achieved this goal, all the glory and honor to God! In this camp we had 60 teenagers from 11 to 15 years old , they enjoyed the games, workshops, making...
