A Time for Thanksgiving
“I am thankful for my acceptance in a country, a culture that is not my own. That I am granted the patience from neighbors and community partners as I improve my language skills. That I am welcomed with open arms, hugs, meals, and a place to feel home.” (Stephanie Sickinger, RdC Volunteer in Arbolito)
Retreat Groups
Rostro de Cristo offers high school, college students, and parishioners a unique opportunity to live the Gospel, deepen their understanding of the global Church, and to make a difference by committing to service, faith, and social justice.
Become a Volunteer
An Invitation to Encounter
Each summer 12–15 recent college graduates travel to the edges of Guayaquil, Ecuador to serve with Rostro de Cristo (RdC) as year long volunteers. They do so in response to God’s call to love our neighbors and to share in the joys and struggles with those who live on the margins. Volunteers spend a year together intentionally living our pillar values: spirituality, service, community, simplicity, and hospitality.
Donate Today!
Supporting Rostro de Cristo is an opportunity to invest in a highly focused program allowing you to see real impact in Ecuador while following the progress of volunteers when they return home and serve their communities, families, and churches.
