Mission Statement
OUR VISION IS A TRANSFORMED GUATEMALA Throughout our years of ministry, we have learned that quality Christian education is the most effective way to bring about long-term change. One transformed life can change an entire family. One transformed family can impact an entire community. Transformed communities can change the course of a nation. This vision starts with each individual child, imparting to them the knowledge that God loves them and has a purpose for their life. As they grow up in this kingdom-minded culture, they begin to believe the truth about who God made them to be. This perspective and confidence enable them to succeed in life, breaking cycles of generational brokenness and positively impacting the people around them.
About This Cause
Education Throughout Guatemala, public schools are dramatically underfunded. Many schools operate without books, teaching literacy through phonetics and rote learning. Without accountability, teachers under-prepare or sometimes don’t even come to school. At CCAF, students receive a quality education. We have libraries at each school, stocked with books from generous donors. We teach literacy through reading, promoting critical thinking. Our teachers are held accountable for the learning in their classrooms and teach passionately with the student in mind. Accessibility Private schools promote themselves as an answer to public school problems, but bullying and other issues persist. Moreover, the high cost means that only wealthy families can afford to enroll their children. At CCAF, finances are not an obstacle to receiving a quality education. We provide scholarships to offset tuition costs and can keep costs low thanks to student sponsors and teacher partners who give monthly towards the work at CCAF. If a family can’t afford to attend, we work with parents to ensure their children receive the quality education they deserve. Faith In Guatemala, education is undervalued. Public schools are filled to the brim, and students can get lost in the crowd. There’s no vision and no reason for students to persevere when they struggle in an underfunded system. At CCAF, our faith is our core curriculum. Each child is valued and loved. They are invited into a relationship with Christ and given a reason to persevere. Each lesson is grounded in the truth of Scripture, and students are led to understand that the Holy Spirit is present, whether it be in math, recess, or English classes.
