Installing an outdoor light

This entire week we will be working with Brainard August and his ministry, MEBAM, in an effort to help the village of Santa Familia.

Come to Belize in July

The “Belize” in Belize

I have been going to Belize for many years now, and one thing that it has taken some getting used to hearing is how Belizeans often refer to Belize City simply as, “Belize”.
The first time I heard someone refer to Belize City as “Belize”, was when I was in a remote village that I was […]
