About Guatemala Missions Work
During our trips to Guatemala, teams work alongside Bethel Ministries to distribute the wheelchairs and walkers that they’ve been collecting all year long. Teams also build metal homes for families. These homes typically include a fuel-efficient wood stove, triple bunk beds and pouring a concrete floor. The team also collects food, clothes and blankets to distribute and they carry it with them throughout the week as they distribute it in multiple locations.
