We are working alongside one of our longstanding church partners in an attempt to save the life of a 4-month-old little girl. Our partner has been ministering to a community in Guatemala for more than 16 years. The mission is Guatemalan-led and focuses on long-term relationships rather than applying direct economic support. However, we have learned of an urgent need we cannot ignore. One family in the community has brought their 4-month-old daughter to our attention. She has been diagnosed with Apert Syndrome, a life-threatening skull deformity. She needs surgery by the end of this month to survive, costing $25,000 (rounded closely). To put this expense in perspective, the father earns about $5,000 annually. Our prayer is that we can be a part of saving this child’s life by providing the surgery.
