100 youth from the San Juan Chamelco Central Church of the Nazarene in Guatemala served God and their community with their gifts and talents in a three-day service event.<\/p>\n
The Xaliha community in San Juan Chamelco received the group April 17-19 in a large Maximum Mission.<\/p>\n
On the first day, they opened with a focus in four areas: children\u2019s ministry, work and witness, evangelism and compassion.\u00a0 The group split into teams for each ministry.<\/p>\n
After a time of prayer on the second day, the group began by cleaning at a local school.\u00a0 They also began the work of expanding the church building of the Church of the Nazarene in Xaliha de Chamelco.\u00a0 They also shared about the love Jesus with the children of the community through crafts, dances, and puppet and mime shows.<\/p>\n
On the third day, the youth delivered care packages to the children that included cleaning items, clothes and toys.\u00a0 They ended with work on the structure of the church building.\u00a0 On this day they also planted trees around the church and in the evening showed the Jesus Film.<\/p>\n
During this time four people reconciled with the Lord. \u201cAs a youth congregation, we feel blessed by what we were able to do, knowing a seed was planted in the hearts of the kids, youth and adults,\u201d said Jeyson Cuz, North Verapaz District Communications Coordinator.<\/p>\n
