Overview

Join Maranatha in Paraguay to build another urgently needed church. The church members in Nueva Italia, less than two hours from Asunción, Paraguay’s capital city, have a deep desire to serve their community. You have an opportunity to write your own mission story there, providing a place of worship for that church to grow and bless the little town.
