I was recently talking with some of my friends in Guatemala about how Spanish speakers are all over the world. They responded something like, “We are everywhere!” It’s true.

Filling the distances
We continue reaching out in our neighborhood through the Little Disciples Bible Study.

Tools for Kids Ministry
Actively writing, praying, dreaming, helping, and preparing — that’s what we’ve been doing when it comes to making good use of this “time-out” due to the COVID-19 virus.

Little Disciples Christmas Party
We celebrated Christmas with the Little Disciples and taught them about the the greatest gift. Using the story of the boy who gave the loaves and fish to Jesus, we taught about giving our best gift to Christ. We also reminded them of the story of the Gift that God sent to us in Christ …
Pocohil I: Children’s Service
