Germana’s Story:
Germana is a wife, mother and grandmother and was our main contact for this housing project. She is a devout Catholic who to this day continues to thank God for the provision of her home. Also in the household is her husband as well as their two children, a son and daughter, and one grandson. Her daughter’s name is Hilda and her grandson is José Luis.
Construction on Germana’s new home began in January 2012. The project duration was three months and was completed that March.
Prior to construction, Germana had a home made of cornstalks. It was a two room home, with one room as the kitchen and the other a bedroom for all those living in the house. Germana’s new home includes four rooms, a bathroom and a patio. One of the rooms is a kitchen and the other three bedrooms.
Our Guatemalan administration was very excited about this project and really felt that the Lord directed us to this family. The family’s property is situated right in the middle of Tizate and we were thrilled to continue providing housing right within the community itself.
