Guatemala Mission Trip
Exciting news! Beech Street Baptist Church in Gurdon is planning our next trip to Guatemala! We will be going in late July 2011 to work with IMB Missionaries Larry and Sarah Plyler. (Our 2010 Guatemala Mission Trip Testimony Service is available as a free MP3 by clicking HERE. ) I am using 100% of my Art sales to help pay my way to Guatemala. I hope to be able to pay ALL of my part of the required trip money using only art sales, but I am going irregardless of the sales – or lack thereof.
As part of the planning process, I have undertaken 2 new Art projects.
During our last trip, Sarah Plyler gave me a copy of a Spanish language gospel tract that featured the artwork of another artist who had been to Guatemala on a mission trip like ours. Sarah asked me if I would like to create a tract with artwork based on some of the photo’s we were taking of the beautiful Guatemalan people and countryside.
After sifting through our hundreds of photos, I was really captured by one image. Pastor Appolinario was holding his beautiful grand daughter, and his smile was as wide as could be. I created an oil painting based on that touching image, digitized it, and created a Spanish language Gospel presentation. You can download it by clicking the picture below. The tract is absolutely free – please download, print, cut, and fold and distribute anywhere the spirit leads!

In addition to the gospel tract, I wanted to have something to share with the children when we do VBS in Guatemala next year. I have started a series of coloring sheets that are free to download and distribute. Please feel free to print them out and use them in your church, your local VBS, or as part of a mission trip. Just click the image below to download!
UPDATE! 4 new pages – prayer, a butterfly, a fish, and an ice cream cone! Now there are 10 original images free for you to print and use! Have fun coloring, and God Bless You!
