As many of you know, Guatemala holds a very special place in my heart. This October, I will be returning to Canica Children's Home in San Marcos, Guatemala, for my third mission trip.
What started as a single mission trip has grown into something so much bigger. The children at Canica are no longer just faces from a trip—they have become family. Their joy, resilience, and love have impacted my life in ways I never expected. Every year, I leave with a full heart, and every year God continues to call me back.
Over the last few years, I have watched God work in incredible ways through this ministry. He has stretched my faith, opened doors I never imagined, and shown me what it truly means to love and serve others. The relationships built at Canica have been a blessing not only to the children and staff, but to me as well. They have taught me just as much as I could ever hope to give.
This year is especially meaningful. In addition to collecting donation items for the children and workers at the home, I've been working behind the scenes on something much bigger that I cannot wait to share with all of you soon. It is a project that God has placed heavily on my heart and has the potential to create an even greater impact for those we serve. More details coming soon!
The cost of this trip is $1,500, which covers my airfare, transportation, meals, and lodging while I am serving in Guatemala. Last year, I was overwhelmed by the generosity, prayers, and support I received. Because of your contributions, I was able to return to the children I love so dearly and help provide encouragement, supplies, and reminders that they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
If you feel led to support this mission, whether through prayer, sharing this fundraiser, financial contributions, or donated items, I would be incredibly grateful. Every gift, no matter the size, helps make this journey possible and allows me to continue serving where God has called me.
Thank you for believing in this mission and for being part of this journey with me. I am honored to be the hands and feet of Jesus, and I cannot wait to see what God does in Guatemala this year.
With love and gratitude,
Andi
