Misión Hispana Blog – Nov 9, 2022
Misión Hispana is located in Puerto San Jose, Guatemala. Paul and Thania Heier originally started their journey on the mission field 17 years ago in Nicaragua, and the Church they started there is still active today.

This past season has been particularly challenging as they have been affected by severe weather in both their Guatemalan community and their U.S. community. From Hurricane [...]

Imuhira Heza Blog – Oct 25, 2022
"Imuhira Heza, Kirundi for “Home of Majesty," is a home for 13 orphaned children, who are cared for by 2 widows, so they may live the lives God created them for.

Life of the “Moun Mitan” Missionary and Straddling Two Worlds We probably all know missionaries who have spent years, if not lifetimes, integrating themselves into a foreign country. They spend lots of time, sometimes years, raising funds, and once in-country, they undergo language training and cultural classes. Then there are the STMs (short-term mission) participants. The STMs usually spend a week in a developing country helping in-country missionaries with projects and experiencing a life-altering awareness of how people in “poor” countries live. Sometimes their work is valuable and gives the missionaries respite and much-needed help [...]

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022 we have been coordinating evacuation efforts carried out by Christian camps and providing financial assistance to Christian camps and conference centers in Ukraine to help the camps that host refugees cover utility bills, purchase bed linen, washing machines, laundry detergent, fuel and food. We have also been sponsoring children and youth to attend Christian camps by providing camper sponsorship funds directly to camps and depending on the camps to select the eligible campers. In the summer of 2022, 217 camps that are part of our [...]
Amazing Grace Missions Blog – Oct 5, 2022
During the pandemic we faced many difficult challenges. God protected the congregation by keeping them safe from getting Covid-19. We prayed for Psalm 91 and continued the church services outdoors following safety protocols.

The pandemic has brought the congregation closer; through God, the congregation at AGM is more united, demonstrating love to one another. Amazing Grace Missions is currently fundraising for emergency home repairs [...]
