As we expand our high school programs, one of the requirements is that we have a fully equipped science lab. After examining our existing spaces, we recognized that our best option was to construct a new building. This building will contain our science lab, administrative offices, and meeting rooms for our growing ministry. We invite you to partner with us as we continue to build and transform Guatemala through Christ-centered education!
We are currently constructing a new science lab and administration building at our Pastores Campus!

GOAL: $200,000
OUR NEW BUILDING WILL GIVE OUR STUDENTS A RICHER ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE AND PROVIDE THEM WITH OPPORTUNITIES THEY PREVIOUSLY DIDN'T HAVE. PLEASE HELP US BRING THIS PROJECT TO COMPLETION AND CONTINUE OUR MISSION OF TRANSFORMING GUATEMALA THROUGH CHRIST-CENTRED EDUCATION.
THEN I REPLIED TO THEM, THE GOD OF HEAVEN WILL MAKE US PROSPER, AND WE HIS SERVANTS WILL ARISE AND BUILD.”

WHAT'S NEXT?
Last year, we started the next phase of ministry expansion. This year, as we continue to work, rising material costs have caused original financial scope of the project to increase significantly. We believe that God is calling us to finish the work that we have started. After all, the work is not ours, but His.
We currently need $200,000 to complete this building project.
This new building will include
- A brand-new chemistry and biology laboratory space
- New office spaces for GSO employees
- A multi-purpose meeting room
This new building also provides us with a space to launch future community outreach initiatives.

Purchase Construction Materials
As we finish phase one and move into phase two, we are in the project stage that requires the most construction material. You can now help us as we purchase building supplies! Donate towards blocks, rebar or even structural columns.
100 Concrete Blocks ($120)
Concrete blocks are the essential pieces of construction used to build the walls and create the structure.
Rebar Package ($60)
Rebar is used in creating the supportive skeleton of the building, helping to protect it against earthquakes and deterioration.
Small Column ($50)
Created from rebar and concrete, structural columns provide the strength of the building, holding it together.
Large Column ($100)
Large columns are used for load-bearing walls and hold most of the building’s weight.
