Myron and the chicken bus

What’s it like to ride on a bus where chickens outnumber passengers by at least 2 to 1? Just ask Myron, our studio coordinator/assistant extraordinaire. As most of you know, Myron recently returned from Guatemala’s Lake Atitlan region where he’s worked with several communities from three language groups that border on this lake. Although beautiful, the Lake Atitlan area has been isolated from much of the progress of the last 100 years.
Its people still live in poverty and suffer from being "second class" citizens of their own country. Myron’s church youth and adults have developed a strong partnership with twelve like-minded churches in the region.
Working alongside these church partners, Myron and his travel partners have made a difference in this area through construction projects, medical clinics, children’s ministries, water purification and education, as well as computer literacy and leadership training.
If you would like to learn more about Myron’s humanitarian work in Guatemala, please take a minute to visit bridgebuilders and read more of their story. And remember, Myron continues to visit Guatemala every year, so get your coffee orders in early!
