Mission: Cuba

September 12, 2019 //  by michael.shead

For months, we’ve been training a group of Guatemalans to think about missions as something they can do themselves…and to start doing it. In November Michael will be traveling with a team of six Guatemalans on a mission trip to Cuba (Pictured above is the team minus one). Plans for Cuba include teaching at a …

Angelica finds Faith

September 10, 2019 //  by michael.shead

Angelica Maria de Leon and her husband didn’t have much. Just a small house without electricity, but they had each other and their three children. Then about 11 years ago, Angelica’s husband decided to go illegally to the United States to try and make a better life for his family. Talking about that time is …

Giving Our Best Gift to Jesus

December 21, 2018 //  by michael.shead

  Since 2005, we’ve been connected with a Guatemalan ministry in one way or another. After moving to Guatemala in 2011, we started serving alongside the ministry of ASELSI. One of the biggest evangelistic events of the year is the annual Christmas Party. This year, we were invited to lead the children’s story time of …

Outreach to the shoeshine boys of Chichicastenango

December 20, 2015 //  by michael.shead

No one is really sure how many shoeshine boys work the streets of Chichicastenango, but estimates reach into the 50s. Sometimes these boys start working to make a few dimes worth of profit when they are as young as the age of five. They wander the streets with a small wooden box of shoe shining …

December 7, 2015 //  by michael.shead

Alcohol is a big problem here in Chichicastenango, Guatemala. Many young people start drinking around the age of 13, and it is common to hear of families that have a series of deaths related to alcohol use. On the streets of Chichicastenango it is a common sight to see men and sometimes even women sprawled …

Discovery Bible Studies

November 2, 2015 //  by michael.shead

As we serve as missionaries in Guatemala, the process of discipling others to be obedient followers of Christ has become more and more our focus. Through prayer and seeking wisdom in God’s Word as well as ideas from others, we have been discovering more about discipleship. One of the resources we’ve found that has been …

ORU Summer Interns: CORDS

June 2, 2013 //  by michael.shead

Sad to say, it’s rare to see churches from different backgrounds working together, but that doesn’t mean it can’t happen! This summer, eight different churches in Chichicastenango, Guatemala are stepping outside their own buildings and working together to develop their youth leaders and hold an evangelistic concert that will have an impact on the entire …

Brenda’s Silence

March 24, 2012 //  by michael.shead

Seven-year-old Brenda rarely speaks. When she does, she uses very few words like “mama” and perhaps a couple other words including her name. I met Brenda and her mom at a clinic held by a team of Texans at the ASELSI Father’s Heart Clinic a couple weeks ago. As an interpreter for the pediatrician, I …

Finding the right directions

February 15, 2011 //  by michael.shead

Michael and I are doing great here in Guatemala! We love the people and are so excited about the doors God is opening for us to share the Gospel! Today, when walking around looking for a bookstore, a Guatemalan man heard us speaking English and saw the map in Michael’s hand and probably the confused …
