 "The more we as a church give--of our time, our prayers, our money- to our community in Guatemala, the more we get back. The concept that you can't outgive God has become bigger and bigger to me. If being involved in C2C doesn't change you, you're not breathing!"
- Betty Bivens, Calvary Lutheran Church |
FH’s Community to Community (C2C) partnership is a long term (3+ years) relationship between a community in the developing world and an American church. Churches go on short term teams, sponsor children, pray, receive regular updates and educate their congregation with a Biblical view of poverty. By getting personally involved with the poor, churches are able to see and experience the transformation that comes from a strong relationship.

"We wanted relationship with a community struggling in poverty. We didn't just want to send a donation every month. We really wanted to get involved in God's global purpose."
