You can go on a trip to Casa Angelina and actually see Leah's House being built, hug the oprhans living there, and see the villagers right outside the gates of the orphanage. There are "work trips" scheduled about 1 week out of every month. To get more information about when the trips are, go to www.whatmattersmm.org, or email Kerry at kjmondal@gmail.com. Kerry lives in Guatemala and organizes teams that come to the orphanage. They do a lot of construction, painting, landscaping, etc., but they also welcome any type of medical professionals. The Mercy Clinic is on the orphanage grounds and serves the children and staff at Casa Angelina, and also the people in the village as well. The villagers have very little access to medical care, so any help is appreciated!
You can also check out our blog from our trip Feb. 13-21, 2009 at www.guatemalamission2009.wordpress.com. It has a day-to-day log of what we did with photos. Check it out! Going on a trip to a third world country will change your life forever!
