God has spoken to me! Maybe I don’t know how to read or write, but I have been able to listen to the words of my heavenly Father.

Val and Arturo

Meet Arturo

During a Freedom Ascent training in February of 2017, Arturo a Kekchí participant thanked us for helping him feel comfortable about praying in his own language. Arturo didn't know how to read or write, but he told us that the workshop and the way we had interacted with God's Word helped him feel a wonderful freedom. We got to see that as he prayed in Kekchí, he exhibited a confidence and peace we had never seen in him when using Spanish. - Valerie, Freedom Ascent Facilitator

"I thank God for these steps that I'm taking. And maybe the enemy doesn't want to see us here, but in God's name these chains need to be broken. I know it isn’t too late and that there is a purpose." - Arturo Xol, Guatemala
