Our National Ministry Leaders
Behind every new roof, water filter, and gospel conversation is a local leader faithfully serving their community. These leaders help HOPE Coffee connect with families in need, bringing lasting impact to the regions that grow HOPE Coffee.
Meet our National Ministry Leaders: Abelardo in Mexico, Carlos in Honduras, and the Leivas family in Guatemala. Abelardo and Carlos work directly with families by identifying urgent physical needs, coordinating projects, and sharing the hope of Jesus Christ. In Guatemala, the Leiva family established schools that serve the children of coffee farmers, and Karina Leiva continues to ensure the schools run smoothly.
Their work goes far beyond service projects. They share the gospel, build lasting relationships, and show the love of Christ in their local communities. Join us in prayer for these amazing leaders!
- Pray that God continues to open doors for Abelardo to connect with churches so that we can support families in need and share the gospel.
- Please also pray for health and strength for his family, especially his wife Sandy and two daughters, Anita and Vania. (This summer, Vania will be traveling to Lan Vwa to serve alongside Karina Leiva, the National Ministry Leader in Guatemala!)
- Pray for the church projects in El Portillo, Pompoa, and El Salitre
- For local church leadership
- For his wife’s health
- For God’s protection during dangerous travel
- For the Lord to open doors for new ministry opportunities
- Pray for God’s provision and guidance for Karina, her family, and the Guatemalan schools as they serve their communities.
- Pray for her daughter’s college scholarship opportunities.
- For continued financial support for the schools.
- For the students, teachers, and volunteers to continue sharing Christ through their service.
