Each week we visit homes in Amatitlán, Buena Vista and Guatemala City

…bringing the message of salvation, and the comfort and encouragement of God’s love

Each week children gather on a farm outside of Amatitlán

The Holy Spirit is laying the foundation of faith as children hear about God’s love and salvation through Bible stories, songs and crafts

Crafts go home and tell the Bible stories to the children’s families

The Public School in Buena Vista invites Groundwork Guatemala to teach Christian Education and English

170 children attend this public school – the only school in Buena Vista

Bringing Jesus to children in this public school is a God sent opportunity

Many children in Guatemala are unable to attend school because they do not have the needed supplies
