Guatemala
Church Planting & Development
Hector and Marissa currently provide leadership and oversight to almost 60 churches within (and outside of) Guatemala. The churches are concentrated in urban areas (Guatemala City, Antigua and Huehuetenango) and extremely remote rural regions. Rapid church planting and a culture of developing and commissioning leaders are hallmarks of the network. Additionally, they emphasize community transformation. Rehabilitation and restoration facilities serve over 100 men and women with chemical and alcohol dependencies, and the churches also minister to children affected by extreme poverty and food insecurity.
Though the network is just beginning official affiliation with the FM work in Latin America, the objective is to formally establish the Free Methodist Mission District of Guatemala through pastor Hector and Marissa and the churches of their network.
