Hector and Arryn Nuila Bauder

 

Hector and Arryn and their 4 children serve the Kekchi people in Chisec, Alta Verapaz, Guatemala.  Their ministry focuses on building relationships and discipling children, youth and families.  They work with both Compelling Love Ministries and Comunidad Galilea.

Hector is the principal of Galilea Christian School which offers classes from Pre-Kindergarten through to career and university prep. The school is at its max with over 500 students. Arryn is the Educational Sponsorship Program coordinator with Compelling Love Ministries, which has 140 children attending Galilea Christian School.  She is the liaison between the school and the families as well as the bridge between the North American sponsors and their sponsor children.  Hector and Arryn work with youth starting from 13 years old in the school’s student leadership program called Seguidores de Cristo (Followers of Christ) where young people are taught how to become Christian leaders.

Together they pastor a children’s church called El Eden, which focuses on teaching children from ages 3 to 12.  They work with a group of 100 or more kids that meet on Sunday afternoons.  Students from the Seguidores program have the opportunity to serve and grow in leadership positions at El Eden under Hector and Arryn’s guidance.  As a couple they work with teams creating youth events, translating, facilitating home visits with sponsors, leading evening debriefs, etc.

Hector and Arryn have a heart to serve the people that the Lord places before them.

How wonderful and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony!
