Mission Guatemala Inc. was founded in 2009 by Tom Heaton, a United Methodist pastor, who has been
supporting the needs of poor and indigenous peoples of Guatemala since the year 2000. The organization’s philosophy is based on John Wesley’s teaching to , “Do all the good you can”.
As a United Methodist related organization, Mission Guatemala believes that all people deserve to be respected and have their basic needs met and that Christians have a calling to help others where they are able. Therefore, Mission Guatemala collaborates with community members, international mission teams, and other NGOs to help meet the needs of Guatemalans living in poverty in the service areas of Health, Education, and Housing.
Program services are funded through generous donations and sponsorships, with the majority of this support provided by United Methodist Church congregations. Project execution relies on the many dedicated volunteer mission teams who come for week-long trips to work in the communities.
