OUR STORY

“Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.”

— John 12:24 (NKJV)

We have always known we were called to the nations, though we didn’t know which one. In 2019, during a church service, the Lord began to stir our hearts. He gave us the same vision—separately. In it, we saw a church being built, down to the details: the color and texture of the dirt, a man with a nail gun, and a deep knowing in our spirits that this place was Guatemala.

For reference the timeline went like this, Krystal had the vision first then our Pastor laid hands on me and declared that the Lord was sending me to Guatemala—to bring revival, break poverty, and be a blessing to the nation, while he laid hands on me I went into the same vision Krystal had, it was supernatural.

This supernatural encounter ignited a deep love for Guatemala in our hearts. Still, we felt led to remain planted at our home church, Faith United Church, allowing the Lord to prepare us. We committed to serving wherever needed—cleaning, greeting, and pouring into children and youth—trusting God to develop us as we remained faithful. Our prayer was simple: “Lord, You gave the vision, so You will make the way.”

In 2024, we got connected with a worship group in Guatemala through a YouTube video we stumbled upon. In 2025, they invited us to visit and even opened their home to us. Taking a step of faith, we went to Guatemala for the first time—and during that trip, the Lord confirmed and expanded our calling. He made it clear that we were to plant a church near the Antigua Guatemala area.

A few months later, our children began having dreams and encounters with the Lord, sharing how He was preparing them for Guatemala. We returned as a family, and they immediately fell in love, calling it “home.” God was not only calling my Wife and I —He was calling our entire family.

Now, in 2026, we have built strong relationships and community in Guatemala and have secured a home as we prepare to fully transition and begin planting the church.

We are deeply grateful and honored that God has chosen us for this mission. Through seasons of pruning, growth, and preparation, we now have the green light from the Lord to move forward in this work He has called us to, Guatemala shall be saved and shaken by the power of Jesus! - Jeremiah & Krystal Marroquin
