Missions To Antigua Guatemala 2023

Greetings everyone,

Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for all that we are and all that we endeavor to do. My wife Maribel and I are getting prepared for our missions’ trip to Guatemala. We both absolutely love to serve the community and watch how God transforms lives and restores hope to the hopeless.

Between the two of us, we have served and partnered as Missionaries with many places throughout here in New York City and abroad in places like Nicaragua, Peru, Haiti, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Philippines, and Thailand to name a few.

Let us tell you a little bit about where we are going and who are our host. The ministry we are visiting is “This Is Vida,” led by Miguel and Angela Martinez out of Antigua, Guatemala. Their ministry is a community-based support that comes alongside the community that they live in with programs that are created with the purpose of providing local families with safe spaces to learn, be creative and see different sides of who God is. Such as through teaching the English language, Bible studies, classes in Embroidery, Nutrition, and Cooking. The heart of This Is Vida is to see the community empowered in their identity in Christ Jesus. Here is a link to their website: https://www.thisisvida.org/

This Is Vida is a local ministry that works tirelessly throughout the days, weeks, and years. This can be overwhelming for small ministries like theirs. So that is why its important to come along side of them to support them in any way we can. Maribel and I are equipped to support them through the work we already do here. We want to lead Bible classes, do Home Visits to pray for folks, and most importantly pray for Miguel and Angela leaving them refreshed and rested to continue their work. We both believe in this ministry and love to hear the great testimonies that come out of Antigua Guatemala.

One of the things that makes this trip most exciting is that we are leading a team from our church Legacy Movement Church on their first missions’ trip. Woohoo!! We are leaving in October 2023. We would love to have you partner with us by prayer and sowing a financial contribution toward our expenses for this trip. We want to say Thank you to the many people that have supported us throughout the years and continue to do so.

We are asking for $2,400 as we need some financial assistance to cover our expenses and would also like to bring some supplies that will bless their ministry. Please prayerfully consider partnering with us. We are asking if you could please pray and see if God would put anything on your heart to help us get to Guatemala this October 2023. If you are unable to help financially, prayers for us and the rest of the team are very much welcomed and appreciated. I thank you kindly for your consideration.

Thanks again, God Bless!

Hector & Maribel
