Sharing Jesus' Love and Hope in Guatemala
since 2014
A Couple of Christians Foundation ~ Misioneros Cristianos Unidos
"let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth" 1 John 3:18
We're feeding hundreds of needy children across some of the poorest neighborhoods in Guatemala. Thanks to your support, we serve hundreds of meals and share dozens of grocery bundles each week!
Hearty soups with poultry or pork are a common meal. Of course, there are tortillas served "to go" in new plasticware.
It's more than food!
Besides feeding the children twice a week and sitting small groups down for Bible stories, we host a Sunday School class with breakfast every Sunday morning at our La Cuchilla site.
​
There are also special projects,
like April's Move Matinee, a fun
Saturday afternoon complete
with theater snacks and games
around a family movie.
​
Special guests occasionally pop in to our feeding sessions with small skits or giveaways. Earlier this year, we distributed brand new sneakers to our Jocotillo kids and soon, we'll do the same in La Cuchilla and Santa Fe!
Our La Cuchilla home base has a brand new roof and fresh coats of sealer and paint on its exterior walls, thanks to a donation from Langhorne Presbyterian Church in Pennsylvania.
​
This solves long running moisture issues and allows us to expand our storage capabilities. We will also replace and add some key equipment to keep up with the needs of our growing ministry.
Our women's ministry, associated with MomCo of Guatemala and the USA, hosts monthly breakfasts where they share prayer and conversation about issues of faith and life in our poor neighborhoods.
​
Many of these women feel trapped in their homes for the most part, due to small children, lack of work/social opportunities in La Cuchilla, and safety of the area.
​
Soon, we'll introduce a new program aimed at letting our young moms use their creativity and initiative, and make new friends (and maybe a little cash!) along the way.
