Welcome

Welcome to our Missionary Journal! We are Kevin and Angelina, full-time missionaries from the organization The Family International. We hope you enjoy your visit with us!

What we do

We commit all of our time, energy and resources to missionary work. Our main objective is to follow Jesus' commandment to "go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" (The Bible, Mark 16:15). We live in Guatemala, where we engage in a variety of projects: holding regular Bible classes, organizing seminars, camps and retreats, teaching the children at the local orphanages, distributing Christian literature, delivering food supplies to the poor, participating in distribution projects of books for children.

How we live

We live together with 8 other like-minded individuals, our friends and co-workers. We share all of our finances, expenses and responsibilities, following the example of the Early Church, where "all that believed were together, and had all things common; and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need" (The Bible, Acts 2:45:46).

What we believe

Here are a few interesting highlights: We believe in using the gift of prophecy to communicate with Jesus, and we practice it daily. We believe that we are now living in the Time of the End, and that Jesus will soon return. We believe that, even though we live in the world, we should not be a part of the world or its pursuits. We believe that love should govern our entire lives, and we extend this belief to all our behavior, including personal relationships. Of course there are many other things, like salvation by grace, spiritual warfare, healing, discipleship, etc. which you can read about in "The Family's Statement of Faith." Don't miss it!

How we support ourselves

Since we invest all our time in the projects of our mission, we are left with no time for secular employment. We don't receive a regular salary, but rather trust God for the supply of all our needs. "The Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel" (The Bible, 1Cor. 9:14). God uses people like you to supply for us.

Our history

We've done missionary work many years (Kevin since 1990 and Angelina her whole life, since her parents are missionaries). Before moving to Guatemala in 2006, we worked in Russia, Ukraine, Poland, the former Yugoslavia and Equatorial Guinea (Central Africa).

Dominik was born on the 20th of January weighing 4.55 kg (10 lb), 52 cm in length. It was definitely a quicker and easier delivery than I have previously to which I’m sure I owe the thanks to the many prayers that were sent my way. Contractions started for real around 3am and by 8am we were at the hospital. He was born at 12:44 in the afternoon. I’m recovering really well and am very happy [More...]
