Description

For more than four years we have been blessed to serve with hundreds of people through our missions program. As a ministry we believe we can serve best through relationship building. When you build a healthy relationship with someone, trust is established and the person you are trying to serve is open to your help. This is why we have designed our trips to allow our team members the ability to build relationships with the children of Dorie's Promise as well as the surrounding communities. Each part of your schedule has been designed with this is mind.

The children of Dorie's Promise get so excited to be partnered with a new team member each week. Our hope is that the child you are paired with will become your forever friend! As a team member you will help your "forever friend" feel the love of Christ through your willingness to love and care for them while at Dorie's Promise. I know you will be blessed as you become an important part of your child's day. You will have the opportunity to make the children of Dorie's Promise forget for a moment that they are parentless. What an amazing gift - to help a child feel important and loved! I want to encourage you to sponsor our children as soon as you can.

Through our work in the community you will meet some of the most impoverished people on this planet. They live among garbage and make their homes out of cardboard and tin. The many children and families we serve throughout Guatemala eagerly wait for Forever Changed International to bring teams of people to share Christ's love with them as well as provide them with what we would consider basic living essentials. Soap and a pair of shoes can brighten the eyes of a 5-year-old boy more than you can imagine. Teams that return regularly get to see how Forever Changed long-term programs are helping these children make their way to a better life.

Please spend some time in prayer asking the Lord if serving through missions is something He is calling you to do. If it is, then we would love for you to come serve with us!

When YOU reach out to serve, lives are changed.

God bless,

Heather Radu
Founder
Forever Changed International
