Guatemala has captured my heart and compassion for the poor, the hungry and under-privileged occupies my mind, my heart and has taken root in my families passion to do our part to make this world a better place. We are planning our second family trip for this summer and can't wait. We will spend time in Escuintla at a garbage dump ministering to the children and families that make the dump their home as well as to work on small projects like building cook stoves, and useful and practical structures and we even hope to build a garden. You can follow our passion here as well as our trip planning details. Check back often as I will post pictures and videos. Beware though... these children and families may also capture your heart!!
