Todd and Maureen Erickson
Todd, Maureen, and their three children moved to Guatemala in August of 2010. Todd serves on the pastoral team of Iglesia del Camino in Antigua. IDC is a local church with a Guatemalan Senior Pastor, bilingual services, and a significant reach into the community. Maureen teaches English classes in a variety of contexts around their town.
Before moving to Guatemala, Todd & Maureen spent their 20th wedding anniversary at a restaurant in beautiful Annapolis, Maryland where they talked about life goals and how they wanted each of their kids to have a mission trip experience sometime during their high school years. Six months later, Todd took Katey down to Guatemala to help a single mom build a house. That trip marked the beginning of an incredible journey. They spent their first seven years in Guatemala working with two great ministries. This was a formative time for them as they figured out how to transfer years of experience in suburban Virginia ministry to a brand new experience of reaching out cross-culturally.
Their time serving in Guatemala has been rich, rich in experience, rich in relationships, and rich in growth. They have learned much about themselves and have enjoyed doing ministry together as a family. Their oldest daughter is married to a great Guatemalan guy and they serve together with a ministry in Cobán, about 5 hours North of Todd and Maureen. Their son is married to a lovely woman he met while she was on a mission trip to Guatemala. They have two children and live outside of Seattle. And their youngest has recently moved to be near her brother in Washington State. As a family, they have been reminded of God’s unique gift in each of their lives and how He desires to express His love for people through their very own family.
Todd and Maureen's connection with Iglesia del Camino is a natural outflow of what God has been teaching them. As a couple, they are committed to the local church and to building transformational relationships. It is in these relationships and in this context that they get to bring hope.
Thanks for your interest in their ministry.
