Dependency can be defined as the unhealthy reliance on foreign resources, personnel, and ideas, which stifles local initiative. It is expecting someone else to do for you what you could do for yourself. Missions Frontier is intentional about creating opportunities and jobs with which believers can support their families and their local churches. We seek to provide a venue for modeling Biblical principles in the market place where these principles infuse the local business climate with the fragrance of Jesus and draw people to him.
CASA DEL REY HOTEL - This hotel is a vital hub for Missions Frontier, from which flow multiple ministries.. The hotel itself is the location for short term trips, Christian conferences, a missionary church, a bilingual school, a school for missionary children, and English camps for Guatemalan children/orphans. In 2001 the Hotel was purchased for $1,050,000. Since beginning this ministry in 2003, between 400 and 500 Christians have passed through the facility each year. Each year over $300,000 has been poured into the local economy through normal business operations. The hotel has provided an additional $100,000 of direct financial support through the projects completed by short term mission teams. The hotel provides over 50 jobs for local residents at a wage dramatically higher than the average daily wage in the area. Last year, the Hotel Casa Del Rey was able to donate land for a New Water Tank to the city of Chichicastenango. FOR MORE SPECIFICS ON HOTEL PROJECT.
