"Viajemos" - Virtual Guatemala Mission TripDAY 7 - "Returning: What's Next?"We are headed home! Today is arguably the most important day, because it provides an opportunity to ask ourselves, "What next?".
We invite you to ask the Holy Spirit how you are being called to be sent and "witnesses" to the love and mission of Christ, starting at home.
We invite you to personally put yourself in the shoes of Peter in John 21: 15-19 and respond to Jesus's question, "Do you love me?" and reflect on if your actions match your response to Him.
We are always here to talk with you...

Today, we hope that you will reflect on Acts 2:42 and center yourself in order to remember not only the importance of prayer and fellowship, but also the importance and beauty of the most powerful form of both- the Mass! We encourage you to try to attend a daily Mass this week and offer it for the people of Guatemala and reflect on what you can do to surround yourself with a good community...
2020-08-2510 min"Viajemos" - Virtual Guatemala Mission TripDAY 5 - "More Than Physical Poverty"Today, we encourage you to join us in reflecting where you are experiencing "poverty" in your life. Just as we enter into the homes of the homebound in Guatemala, Jesus wants to enter into our hearts to provide healing, peace, and joy to the places that we are suffering in. If we don't "suffer", we don't need Jesus! He wants to meet and heal you in love.
John 9 includes a powerful story of Jesus healing a blind man. The blind man acknowledges his suffering and trusts in the Lord that He will...

To us, there are truly few people that are better at living out of their true identities as daughters of Christ than these women. They are able to serve us so well and create a community of abundant joy just by being only defined by their intimate and personal relationship with the Father.
They so remind us of the story of Martha and Mary. We invite you to join us in reflecting on this story found in Luke 10:38-42 and ask the Holy...

We encourage you as the Lord where He is calling you to be a translator or a mason in your life right now- to be rooted, to foster trust and community, and to teach and share the Gospel.
We invite you to reflect on probably our most...

We invite you to explore which "walk" you are on in your spiritual life. The Lord is everywhere, and it's so easy to not notice Him when we are distracted by the business of life and not on a walk witnessing the beauty of Guatemala.
This evening we encourage you to write down 3 ways in which...

"Viajemos" means "let's travel/journey" and we are excited to do just that! We are so excited to see what the Lord has in store for us as well as for you. We hope that you will invite the Lord into your heart and ask Him what He desires for you to "arrive" at in your life.
Please join us in reflecting on Ecclesiastes 3 and diving in!
