Guatemala Team Prepares to Go




Early Saturday morning, February 2-9, our Two Rivers Team of 9 members will fly down to Guatemala. Our team will be working with our partner church at CCCG. The main purpose of the trip is to continue the work that is already underway on the dormitory for the retreat center.


The retreat or conference center is located in Monterrico at the Pacific Ocean. This center is used for many purposes, one being that of having a place to reach out from in the Pacific region. There are many villages where CCCG partners with the Pastor and begins a feeding program that is used to build a relationship. The goal is to save the younger generation as the church provides a meal in the morning served at the village church. The children are then divided into 3 groups where they are taught bible stories, health care practices and play games. The groups are rotated among these 3 groups in the morning. The CCCG then visits this village on a monthly basis to encourage and train the Pastor.
Will you pray that our team has safety in travel, health for their bodies and a deep sense of the presence of God surrounding all they do?
