Implementation delay due to lack of water

Date Posted: 03/13/2026

We are immensely grateful to everyone who donated to our cause and helped us reach our fundraising goal. We bless their lives, families, and work. Unfortunately, we currently have a limited water supply for the construction of the perimeter wall, as the area where the church is located has plumbing problems. Therefore, the church was forced to dig a well. Currently, the excavation is 75% complete. As soon as the well is finished, we will begin the perimeter wall project. We apologize for the delay, but we trust in God that we will soon be able to inform you that the project is completed.

About the Cause

Casa de Misericordia

Posted by Casa de Misericordia in Guatemala on 12/04/2024

This cause seeks the physical well-being of children and young people in terms of the conditions in which they receive classes. Since currently the church does not have a perimeter wall or flood protection due to the ravine that runs right next to it. Fear increases during the rainy season because the ravine grows and brings with it a lot of sand and stones from the mountains. Also the fact that there is no wall and a gate has endangered the integrity of the children and young people, this because the land above the church is lonely and mountainous, which has caused people to use it to consume illicit substances (getting high, drinking alcohol or smoking). So there is always the fear that they will enter the church when the children and young people are receiving classes. What we want to offer is an invulnerable and pleasant environment for them, with a gate and wall that is safe in every sense. This cause seeks to benefit 300 children and young people. Currently it is only circulated with already deteriorated mesh and sticks. The gate is made of damaged mesh and is unsustainable if completely closed. That is why it is only half closed at night, since during the day it is kept open because there is fear that it will fall on the children. The construction area is for a 7-meter gate and a 3-meter high and 50-meter long wall. The gate would be made of steel or iron. The wall would be made of stones, concrete and blocks.

How the church will sustain the Cause

Our church plans improvements to the child development center every year, with the goal of protecting the integrity of the children and youth. Also to give them a quality Christian education that they deserve. That is why we have been committed to improving the facilities. Everything has been achieved with the support of brothers of the congregation by selling food and spare parts. Another resource that would be used is asking for offerings to our congregation, such as asking for support in fruits and vegetables from the merchants and farmers brothers to serve in the making of spare parts and food dishes to sell to the people of the community. Since the infrastructure of the wall was damaged by the flooding of the stream, we have bricklayers from the congregation who are willing to watch over its good condition.
