What an energetic afternoon! We hosted Vacation Bible School for 100 incredible children today.

Our Partners

by Jonathan Alvarez | July 21, 2026 10:46 PM

Today, Pastor José and his wife, Ana, sat down with our team to share their powerful testimony.

Having been established for 50 years, the local church holds such a rich history, but what inspired us most is their vision for the future. Pastor José and Ana continue to renew the church's purpose by actively opening doors for young people, making sure the next generation is heard, valued, and empowered to serve.
