Ministry in Guatemala
As I have mentioned in the past one of the primary ways we are able to minister here in Guatemala is through making visits to all the families connected with the schools we work with at Love Guatemala Ministeries.
Today we visited a family of a young man named George who attends the Art School. George has a story that is somewhat similar to a lot of the families here. He has many problems. Those problems and struggles that are very difficult for anyone let alone a young boy. These problems came to a head one day for George. It breaks your heart to see young boys having to bear these kinds of burdens here. This day about 2 months ago. At the time we had a couple of men here from Piedmont Church here and they we were all able to share with him and pray over him. He shared that he had many problems at home. He was a bit hesitant to share what the problems were but he finally shared that his Dad was in jail and they didn't have much money and that it was very hard.
Today was a bit better of a time with him and his family. But his mother shared with us that her husband was still in jail from a debt he could not pay back. So needless to say they are struggling with this. We were able to pray with them and encourage them from the scriptures again today.
Please pray for this family that George would be released from jail and this issue with the debt would be resolved and that we would have wisdom in ministering to them.
