The Guatemala
Project

Almost every year, one or more of
our members travel to Guatemala, to participate in the Guatemala
Project. The village of Chichicastenango is located in the cool
mountains of the department
of Santa Cruz del Quichi. You can become a part of all this by going to
Guatemala yourself or by donating much needed vitamins and other necessities. The Guatemala
Project is run under the aegis of the San Diego District United
Methodist Church, but it receives no funding and relies on donations and
is somewhat self-supporting through the making of Guatemalan Native Handicrafts.
Periodically, project director Carol Conger-Cross of Lemon Grove, brings some of these handmade items such as purses, backpacks,
glass cases, jackets and picture frames for purchase. This project is
sponsored at our church
by Family Ministries.
