Follow Up Video
In June of 2019, our ministry had the privilege of sending out a group of 49 students and mentors to San Raymundo, Guatemala. On the trip, we partnered with Casas por Cristo to build 3 homes for local families in need, learned a lot from the people in the community, and grew in our relationships with God.

The Suruy family, one of the three families that we built a home for, has had a follow-up visit that Casas por Cristo has put on video and shared with us.

Check out the videos below to see how God has been at work!
