Guatemala Spring Mission Trip 2024

We will partner with We Are Graces and their work to help families in and around Antigua, Guatemala. This hands-on experience will be designed for those who want to see and participate in what God is doing in Guatemala. We will visit the school GRACES supports and meet and interact with the children through classroom visits and sports activities. We will also go on several home visits to see where these students live, meet their families, and provide them with food and encouragement. Team members will also build stoves and deliver them to families who need them most. We will end our time by creating a “Family Night,” including dinner, games, and activities for these families.
