This week’s Centro Médico Vida Plena update brings both excitement and frustration! While construction is moving forward and our equipment is on its way to Guatemala, we’ve also run into some unexpected government red tape that’s testing our patience—and our faith. Through it all, we’re trusting God’s perfect timing as we take one more step toward opening a medical center that will bring healing, hope, and the love of Jesus to Escuintla.

Construction has officially begun at Centro Médico Vida Plena! 🚧 Walls are coming down, new layouts are in place, and we’ve hired our general contractor to lead the remodel. See how Pastor Esvin and his team kicked off the work and discover the exciting changes to our future state-of-the-art medical center.

Escuintla is located just 56 km from Guatemala City. While the city itself is bustling, many surrounding villages remain remote and underserved. With over 160,000 residents in the department’s urban center alone, the need for reliable health services is overwhelming.

The vision continues! In this second part of our Clinic Vision Tour, we walk through the rest of the building that will soon become Centro Médico Vida Plena. See how each room—exam areas, offices, and the future lab—will soon serve families in Escuintla with compassionate, faith-based care. Watch as this vision moves one step closer to becoming a reality!
