Give - Guatemala

Wesleyans in Guatemala are still in need of prayer and assistance after Tropical Storm Agatha and Pacaya volcano pummeled the area with inches of rain and ash.

Wesleyan leaders, through The Wesleyan Church’s Global Partners department, have received updates from GP Area Director Jarvis Ferguson and Guatemala missionary Luis Martinez. In a late report, Martinez said that Wesleyan churches in the area are “okay” and have been cleared from the mud and ash remaining from the storm that killed nearly 200 people and left hundreds homeless.

A team from Indiana Wesleyan University has returned safely to the United States after being delayed by cancelled flights and blocked roads to the airport. The team had traveled to Guatemala to do medical missions before the tropical storm and volcano wreaked havoc on the country. Since the local airport was still closed Wednesday, arrangements were made to transport them to El Salvador for flights to America.
