Vision

A few months ago I was asking God to show me what He wanted me to do with my
college degree in Spanish and art after graduation. This past February I received my
answer. A missionary from Guatemala, Joel Van Dyke, came to speak at our church.
He shared a need for someone who is passionate about art, speaks Spanish, and who
is graduating this year to work with the I AM ART camps in Guatemala. When I heard
this, I felt that God was calling me to join Him in this new initiative.
Through my life I have enjoyed a variety of experiences that have taught me to love
the Spanish language and Hispanic cultures. I grew up in a Hispanic community, have
traveled to four Spanish-speaking countries, and have built a strong relationship with a
wonderful Mexican family at my church. All of this has increased and strengthened my
desire to use my language and art talents to serve God.

I truly believe that God is calling me to Guatemala this year, and I am joyful for the
opportunity to share my art, faith, and life with whomever I meet in Guatemala.

Mission
This fall I am eager to begin my one-year journey in Guatemala City volunteering
for the Center for Transforming Mission (CTM). Through CTM I will be involved with
coordinating and planning the week-long I AM ART camps that support, teach, and
nourish the at-risk youth of the community through the arts. In addition, I will be
traveling to different locations in and outside of Guatemala to receive theological,
spiritual, and cultural training. My time in Guatemala will be spent immersed in the
community forming relationships and sharing my faith.
I anticipate that my time in Guatemala will be challenging, but with every challenge
comes reward. God is faithful, and I know that He can use me in Guatemala to
transform lives.
