Mother/Daughter Mission to Guatemala

Donation protected
Why are we raising money to go to a remote part of the world, skipping showers and cell phones to work for strangers in building tiny homes and serving in medical clinics?

It's Life CHANGING.
What joy can a soft pillow or warm blanket bring to an impoverished family when it's surrounded by new walls, a real floor and a solid roof? For families living in poverty unseen by most Americans it's unexplainable. It's life-altering. A big part of our job during our time in Guatemala is spent constructing  10x12 homes made of metal studs, dryall, and cement board.  At the end of construction, each home is prayed over and dedicated to it's new owners in faith that it will be filled with the presence of the Holy Spirit.

The lives of the Guatemalan people are not the only ones that will change. Kyra, who has gone on a previous trip to Guatemala, will attest to the profound impact serving with Paradise Bound has it's the team members.  "God sightings" are a regular but miraculous part of this trip. Being unplugged from technology and connected to people will be a new and intense opportunity to refresh and deepen our walk with God and get our eyes off our own troubles and distractions. Seeing and experiencing how others in our world live brings a healthy and humbling dose of perspective and gratitude. Kyra and I are so excited to be able to experience this together as mother and daughter.  These are memories and experiences we will cherish together for many years.

It's Life SAVING.
Lives will not only be changed during our time in Guatemala but lives will also be saved. Literally!
Two days of our trip will be devoted to village ministry at remote mobile Medial Clinics. We will set up and operate these clinics with trained staff who distribute medication. Some of which will ultimately save lives! 
During these days we will also spend time getting to know the people of the village and focus on building relationships through activities we will do together.

It's Life GIVING.
The same families and individuals we serve in providing homes and medical attention will also be introduced to an eternal hope that comes from knowing Jesus Christ. Our team will lovingly present the message of the gospel through testimonies, relationships and a special presentation of the Jesus film. For kids and adults who have never seen a movie, this will be an incredibly powerful evening! God's heart for the people of Guatemala is to KNOW him and have life abundantly.  We are confident God goes before us in preparing many hearts to receive Him.
