BETHLEHEM CAREPOINT, GUATEMALA

Christ Community Church has developed a long-term partnership with Bethlehem CarePoint in Guatemala. Bethlehem provides education, Bible studies, family training and support, food, minor medical care, and more to the Mayan community near San Juan Chamelco. Our goal is to offer support, both relational and financial, to the missionary staff who daily work to provide hope for the future in this depressed and impoverished area. We do this in three main ways: sponsorships, visits, and special projects. Through individual sponsorships of children by our members, Bethlehem is afforded the funds to carry on its ministry; through bi-annual visits, we bring encouragement, relationship, and hope both to the staff and families who attend Bethlehem; through special projects we improve the facilities that make ministry possible.

Joining the team is an experience you will never forget and will add much to your understanding of poverty alleviation both home and abroad and how to best work within a different culture to ensure we are always helping without hurting.
