Driving to Yepocapa!

by Katrina Hulme | June 23, 2024 12:44 AM

We made it to Guatemala! After a classic lunch at Pollo Campero, we drove to the town Yepocapa where we will be serving this week. There were some great views along the way!

The church members welcomed us with this great surprise of decorations, prayed over us, and greeted each of us individually. We cannot wait to see how the Lord will help us connect with the local congregation this week!

God's Faithfulness

by Katrina Hulme | June 23, 2024 3:59 PM

This morning we learned more about the history of the church and Pastor Moises' story. He shared how Yepocapa was a forgotten town but the Lord has been faithfully providing for the church and growing the church. Each step of the way has been evidence of God at work. We prayed over Pastor, Pastora and their family, and we invite you to join us in praying for them as they serve in the ministry God has called them too.

Men's Ministry

by Katrina Hulme | June 23, 2024 4:14 PM

Some of our leaders felt led to share with the men of the church, and Pastor said it is the first time that a team has done that! We had some fun and also shared about how the Bible describes the man's role in his family and how we are to follow Christ's example.

Prepping Food Bags

by Katrina Hulme | June 23, 2024 4:20 PM

We packed up grocery bags with some basic staples and prayed over each one. We pray that these bags would be a small blessing to each family. Please pray for the 20 families that we will visit this week and that they would see and feel God's love through us!

At His Feet

by Katrina Hulme | June 23, 2024 9:51 PM

Heidi shared a powerful message about the feet of Jesus. She shared stories from the Bible of people falling at Jesus' feet to worship, find healing, and find forgiveness. Then she invited us and the congregation to do the same!

Breaking Rocks!

Our work project crew is breaking up pieces of concrete in order to make room for the sidewalk. We were supposed to have rain, which would've delayed the project, but the Lord provided sunshine!! Hallelujah!
