Mission: Guatemala

We are excited to announce a partnership with the grade 6 class and 2 of the high school students that will be going on the HRA missions trip to Guatemala during Spring Break.  Our class has been appointed Megan and Kailey.  We will have the girls join our class on a few occasions between now and then so that the grade 6 students can get to know them.  We have already had a time together where we were able to ask them what they were most excited about and most fearful about, in regards to the trip.  We will continue to pray for good health and safety while they are travelling, as well as many opportunities for them to connect with the local people.

In preparation for the trip, the missions team is asking for the following donations to bring along.  We will have a box in our class to collect these items during the next several weeks.  The toys, t-shirts, & hats/gloves can be gently used or new.  The school supplies and hygiene items should be in new condition.

SMALL Toys – vehicles (Hot Wheels, etc.), dolls (Polly Pockets, etc), marbles, skipping ropes, anything else that is small

T-SHIRTS – without large logos and in good condition

HATS – summer, packable (squishable), logos small or not present

GLOVES – Light weight (summer) but heavy duty

SCHOOL SUPPLIES- pencils with pencil sharpeners, erasers, pens, rulers, crayons, etc

PERSONAL HYGIENE – soap, toothbrush and toothpaste, comb, hairbrushes (small), hair accessories

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!
