Day Five – Incredibly Grateful
This is my third time being here with Healing Nations in this beautiful country. The good it does my heart is beyond words. I love the opportunity to serve beside Abita, the dentist here in Guatemala. She is a breath of fresh air and keeps me laughing even with a line down the hall. The one thing that stands out to me is the care she gives each patient

When people say “God’s timing is perfect,” they probably aren’t referring to stories like this one; but here goes … When it came time to make a decision whether to join the Guatemala team, one of my hesitations — and I’m not proud to admit this — came when I realized we would be here on the final days of the World Cup. Compared to most Americans, I am a huge soccer fan —
In the heart of Antigua
Hello everyone! My name is Emma Champ and this is my second year going to Guatemala! I was a last minute addition to the team, but I have never been happier and have loved every second of the trip so far! After a day of lots of manual labor, and a second day of building and painting, we got the day to go shopping and exploring in Antigua! My group was all of the
Team Spirit!
Today was day two in Guatemala. Yesterday was spent doing a lot of hard work hauling dirt and sand. We spent most of the day filling in a trench on the back side of the church and also shoveling sand for cement mixing. We had to move it all from one side of the church grounds to the other due to not being able get the truck on the other side. Some team members
Loving Guatemala!
Hi, this is Vicki, I’m not in the group photo because I have been in Guatemala since the Healing Nations medical mission in January. What an amazing experience this has been! I love Guatemala. After the mission in January I went to school in Antigua to learn Spanish. After my time in Antigua I had the privilege of living 10 days with the pastor of Membrillal and his family. I have now joined the

Acts of Love
The last day of Truth Centered Transformation training for our sponsored families and the leadership of the Paulette and Tru de Nord churches is in the books. The topics of the day were the churches role in making known the wisdom of God and performing acts of love in the community. Eli and Jenny have been amazing translators. But even with them, the cultural and language barrier made getting our message across difficult. We
A Great Day
Our post isn’t as exciting as others. We mostly just held adorable babies all day. Today the children learned about the Armor of God. We talked about the Belt of Truth, Breastplate of Righteousness, Helmet of Salvation, Shield of Faith, Sword of the Spirit, and the Boots of Peace. The children also had fun playing a couple of games. Volunteers also had fun learning games the kids taught them from the Haitian culture. -Kasey
Love is in the air
Today is Valentine’s Day…back at home and here in Haiti. Our day was not filled with candy, flowers, and all the hallmark versions of how we normally spend celebrating Valentine’s day but rather it was a day truly filled with an authentic experience of love. Today was our second full day in Haiti. Of the ten people in our group, this is the first mission experience for eight of us. Undoubtedly, we will all
