Travel Day with Victoriano, II

Yesterday was our second Travel Day with Victoriano. This time we stayed close to home - visiting the church camp and misión.


Every three-four months the church meets at the campo for servicio, baptism, and of course, good eating.


There is no electricity in this area so the water must be pulled from the deep well and emptied in the baptism pool. That is COLD water!


Located on the grounds is a small coffee plantation.


The coffee is harvested, staored at the church, and later roasted for use at special meetings.

Across the major highway in Chimaltenango, we traveled up the mountain on bumpy trails to the misión. It is obvious not many vehicles pass this way. Thankfully "Clyde" has four wheel drive :)





The misión is only about a year old and has about 15 regular attenders but the potential to reach many others. Ludwin, is the pastor, are is boldly proclaiming the Gospel in this area.



Here we find David playing his harp. This old wooden harp was in the children's classroom.


On up the mountain, we were rewarded with fantastic views of Chimaltenango and the surrounding area.




Pray for the people of Chimaltenango.
