Grace Baptist Fellowship, the First Baptist Church of Woodlawn, and one home church group took two vans, and drove from Mt. Vernon to Chicago, before taking a four hour flight to El Salvador where they had a short layover.

After that, they took a thirty minute plane ride to Guatemala city, and stayed overnight at a mission house called the House of blessings..

The next day, a five hour bus ride got the group to their destination in Coatepeque.
There, they arrived at the First Baptist Church of Coatepeque, pastored by a man named Otto Echeverria.

“Being together, sharing time together, Talking about different experiences, and different ministries and different places,” Echeverria says is his mission.
