2023 Goals
In 2023 the desire is to be able to move forward with the completion of
the stairs that connects the church with the foundation of the
construction and to finish the second floor.
What's missing is to build the walls, tile the halls, finish bathroom
area and the retaining wall. The construction of the retaining wall
is most urgent, since part of the mountain that is attached to our
property collapsed. The cost of this wall is $2000 dollars and the value
to finish the second floor is $15,000.

Mission Trip
Join us!
When you step into a foreign mission field, like Colombia, you will sense God's amazing compassion for another culture and you will begin to know his love for the nations. You will encounter His manifest presence as His love touches your heart and that love extends to your neighbor. You become the hands and feet of Jesus to people in desperate need.
ONE HEART ONE MISSION
For many lives it is a constant struggle, even today. And our aim is to give their struggle HOPE.
The people of Santa Cecilia, Colombia have been blessed with the natural beauty of the view over the Mountains as their home for many generations.
Unfortunately, many families in Colombia have lost hope for a successful future. They only see the results of poverty, broken families, and loss of jobs. Hope is generated by building the coliseum and sharing God's word and our love with our family in Christ.
