Pray for the Guatemala Mission Team leaving this Saturday, June 4, and returning Sunday, June 12. They will be building cleaner, efficient “rocket stoves” better suited to the small houses in the mission areas. They also will spend time at Amor del Nino caring for children, at dental clinics and possibly at medical clinics.
In all, 19 people are making the trip. Our church is sending Ken and Taylor Paul, Rusty Castleman, Debbie Frazier, Michael Beary and Andrea Davidson. Batesville dentist Mark Chunn and daughter Alex are also going.
This prayer calendar focuses on the changing needs as the mission proceeds:
