Progress!

Our h(e)arts are so filled with joy and awe at a God who has moved our community so powerfully to fund all our first goals!  We have some exciting developments behind the scenes that we are hoping will be able to stretch these generous donations even farther and make more of an impact.  

Please pray that the people in Guatemala have their h(e)arts moved the same way your were moved here to partner with us in reaching our goals more effectively.  Juan Carlos is headed to the site early next week to meet with a potential partner, deliver the cart and stove to Antonia, help Reina obtain the supplies for her business, and will be bringing Pablo some new furniture including a new chair

 Can you image how great it will be for his 77 year old bones to have a back to his chair??  Simple items of great joy you are helping us deliver!!

Our large water project will begin later in the month --- Keep you posted on that and know that your donations are all being used for GOOD!

INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THE CHILD

GOAL!!!!!!    

I feel like shouting this like they do at futbol games

It is incredibly fitting that today is the day we not only reached - but exceeded -  our initial goal for the first set of projects.  In Guatemala, today is a holiday "EL DIA DEL NINO" or "The Day of the Child".  This day is designed to bring awareness to children all around the world that are impacted by the effect of abuses in all forms, including feeling the effects of poverty and lack of access to education.  

God's providence is so apparent that on this day where Guatemala celebrates all children, we are going to be able to have a direct influence on some of these children and families and potentially, change the trajectory of their lives for generations.  Thanks to all of our extremely generous and h(e)art warming donations - we have raised enough to fund the water project, send 15 children to school for 1 year, and fund a few economic opportunities to increase income.

There is no way to adequately thank you all except to be excellent stewards of the donations,  keep moving forward, and be able to complete these projects this month to show you all the direct impact you are having!   

GOD IS SO GOOD AND FAITHFUL!
