The church was started in 1994 by director Victor Barbella and another missionary, Tim Johnson. The purpose of the church was to reach the surrounding community with the purpose of Christ for their lives and to have a place where the people in the Rehab center could worship and have exposure to a church environment.
Since then the church has become what we call a missions’ church. Our Sunday services are translate from English to Spanish and the church itself consists of missionaries from the United States, Canada, and people from here in Guatemala.
Wednesday night there is a Bible study and a youth group, both of which are in Spanish only. Friday night services are in Spanish only as well and consist mainly of the Guatemalan community.
Offerings and donations received at the church are used to support the Guatemalan missionaries serving her in Guatemala and in other parts of the world. In addition, we are able to help other Guatemalans who may have different needs and to make improvements on the church building itself. Also, none of the church workers receive a salary for their services in the church. This includes the pastor, worship leaders, Sunday school teachers, and translators.
