I came to Guatemala with a Graduate Preaching Fellowship in 2004 to learn to be neighbor. I was ordained at the St. Paul Area Synod Assembly in June 2007 as a pastor of the Iglesia Luterana Agustina de Guatemala and commissioned for service by two Synods of the ELCA and the Global Mission Unit of the ELCA. I serve in Guatemala with the ILAG as a missionary and a pastor.
We were greeted with tremedous joy and love at the airport and then brought in the back of a huge truck (open air) to Hope House-- a ministry in the poorest neighborhood of San Salvador. They have decided to remain in solidarity and love with the poor. Crack house and Prostitutes across the street but amid such suffering is hope.
