CHILDREN'S DAY kicks off Children's Month here in Guatemala.
We're very happy to provide some cool gifts to each of our mission children. Over the next week or so, our little guys will receive a new umbrella for the sun & rain.
Better yet, we have new age-appropriate Bibles and Bible story & activity books for every one of our little angels.
We're still feeding and teaching 350 children down here, thanks largely to your continued support. THANK YOU!

Some days it is easier to enter our home than others. 😁
Much of this will make its way into grocery bags distributed to needy families and seniors.
Your financial support allows us to add meat and veggies to turn most of it into hearty meals for our mission kids and homeless folks.
Thank you for your help, and thank you to Casa de Dios for this monthly food blessing to our Ciudad de Refugio feeding programs.

We're still serving hundreds of meals each week to needy kids. But this past Saturday, it was the mothers' turn to enjoy a special breakfast, prayer, and a roundtable discussion as part of our regular women's ministry.

I remember my grammar school used to present Saturday afternoon matinees for us back in the 70s.
So happy to give our mission kids a chance to enjoy a Saturday afternoon of safe fun, as well as popcorn and drinks!

Before feeding our kids, the church and anteroom are open to small groups for Bible-related stories, lessons, and activities. We're so happy to see former mission kids and recent baptizees from our church stepping up to work with the youngers guys while we prepare hot, nutritious meals in the next room. Praise God for it!

Besides feeding kids and sharing groceries with struggling families, our mission at La Cuchilla supports a small women's ministry.
Last month- the Month of Love- the group held a seminar for married couples complete with a guest presentation, discussion, and supper.
Our Women's Mission is affiliated with MOPS-Guatemala, an organization that supports mothers of young children.

Our Feeding and Faith programs are in full swing, including some special guests like these gentlemen from Korea who partner with another local church to offer Faith-based Tae Kwando classes that several of our kids take advantage of.
They gave a fun and well-received demonstration at La Cuchilla before assisting with the meal service. THANK YOU to our new Korean friends!

Meanwhile, we're hitting the back streets again!

This week, we’re hitting the streets with our annual Good News Project. It’s the most impactful week of our mission year. Not only for the recipients, but also for our staff and family. As I think about the expression, “hitting the street,” something occurs to me. Few folks realize what thos...

Sleigh #1 is loaded up and ready to go. This will be the first 72 of about 200 holiday food baskets distributed around Guatemala City. Sleighs #2 and 3 will be loaded with toys, decorations, equipment and the makings of a holiday lunch for our kids in La Cuchilla.
The GOOD NEWS PROJECT kicks off on Monday and rolls along with 5 stops between then and Christmas Eve. Please keep our volunteers in your prayers the next week or two!
