www.maranatha.org - This week, come with us to the South American country of Bolivia, where we’ll meet Daria Chipana. Daria is a church member of the Colina Ecologica Seventh-day Adventist Church. Her church family is very important to her, because as a single mother, they provide a support system for her family that she wouldn’t otherwise have. Although the congregation is loving, they struggle with their rented meeting space. It’s a community center, and sometimes there are events that take place on Sabbath during church time. It’s disruptive when they cannot meet, and makes inviting guests difficult. See how Maranatha helped Daria and Colina Ecologica to create a new space that would allow them to continue spreading the Gospel in their community.
