Mission Trip 2025 Guatemala!

PUMC has a team preparing to go to Guatemala in the fall!

Please support the team traveling to Guatemala this September for a Living
Water International mission trip. Living Water International exists to
demonstrate the love of God by helping communities acquire desperately
needed clean water, and to experience “living water”—the gospel of Jesus
Christ—which alone satisfies the deepest thirst. 771 million people around the
world lack access to basic drinking services. Our team will work alongside Living
Water’s local staff and engage with a community in Guatemala through safe
water, sanitation and hygiene, and church mobilization.

HOW YOU CAN HELP!

We are accepting donations toward travel expenses.
We will also collect school supplies and small toys to share with children in the community.
July’s love offering will support the mission trip to Guatemala.
Sunday, July 20 - Gong Show Fundraiser in the Crossroads Center:
