The Guatemalan Presbyterian church, the PC(USA)’s World Mission staff, and the Guatemala Mission network have planned a mission network gathering for Tuesday evening, February 1, though Friday morning, February 4, at the Presbyterian seminary in Guatemala. Crescent Hill folks have participated in several of these network gatherings – including one, two years ago, that was also in Guatemala. Among those folks who will be there will be U.S. and Guatemalan Presbyterians from congregations and presbyteries , like us, involved in U.S.-Guatemalan partnerships. Two years ago – before we had established an official partnership – we sent two people, and the Estoreño Presbytery sent two people.
The gathering organizers are expecting that U.S. Presbyterians traveling for the gathering may visit with their partners (for example, in El Estor) before or after the gathering (but Ellen and Stephanie did not so this two years ago).
We have informed our partners about this gathering, in general, but may follow up with more detail – although- as should be obvious in another re-mail – they may be preoccupied right now. More information about costs and program are supposed to be forthcoming.
