The backstory

When a group of 32 people from GWC went to Guatemala in March, there were some things they knew, and some things they didn’t know.

They knew they were called to go abroad.  They knew they would see and hear things that they could never experience at home.  They knew they would be dirty and uncomfortable, but working to support Godly missions in impoverished areas.

They did not know that a similar group from church would return again in October.  They didn’t know they would be talking about filling a train car with medical supplies for a clinic. They didn’t know they would find a new family.  And, they didn’t know that this 9 day trip was the beginning of a multi-year effort.

On October 14, 23 people from Northern Colorado will fly to Guatemala City, and many hours later arrive at a hotel outside of Antigua for an intense week of serving orphans and widows. Follow this blog as we prepare to travel, and to catch updates as we are on the Ground in Guatemala.
