About Guatemala

Guatemala’s name comes from an ancient Nahuatl Aztec word meaning “land of many trees.” This Central American country is rich in Indigenous heritage and stunning landscapes. Yet many communities face challenges such as poverty, malnutrition, and limited access to education.

Construction of an office for CDI administrative volunteers.

Construction of an office for CDI administrative volunteers.

With the support of the local board and pastoral body of the Nazarene Church, work is being carried out on the embankment, since the land is at an angle of unevenness and it is necessary to have a good flat surface where the building will be built, which will serve for the proper functioning of the Comprehensive Development Center.
