FIELD MINISTRY COSTS

Ministry Advancement: When your team arrives in Guatemala you will be entering a ministry that is on the move in a variety of ways and places. Your team will serve alongside passionate local Guatemalan Christians, many of whom have made sacrifices in their own lives to be employed by HRI and serve in underprivileged communities. Our staff and the people with whom we partner are often catalysts for change and hope. Your $450 provides crucial resources to help them meet needs and increase the impact they can have in the communities in which they work.

Mercy Ministry: Additionally, a portion of each teams’s Field Ministry Costs goes to a Mercy Ministry Fund. This money allows HRI to respond quickly and effectively to mercy needs as they occur throughout the country. In the past these funds have helped rush a neighbor injured in a motorcycle accident to the hospital, assisted a member of our construction team in covering the costs of cancer treatment for his mother, provided treatments for children in the dump diagnosed with rare medical conditions, and have helped with disaster relief efforts.
