February 26-March 5, 2024
The East Woods GO Team is going to Guatemala in 2024! And we're excited to partner with St John's Presbyterian Church of Camas. Several members of our team join us from SJPC.
Our Mission
We'll learn about the needs of the Guatemalan people in context of their history and culture. And learn about CEDEPCA's ministry work in multiple communities. Most importantly, we'll learn what it means to seek justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with our God in a broader context through friendships of people living in Guatemala. CEDEPCA is a long time ministry partner of PC(USA) and continues to help shape and expand our world view as justice focused Jesus following people.
We'll also be serving alongside CEDEPCA's Disaster Relief ministry as we deliver much needed clean water filters to rural communities who otherwise must drink contaminated water, which is a leading cause of disease and death to children under five years old.
Keep reading to see how you can partner with us in this lifesaving outreach!
And read in their own words why our team is excited about this trip!
