The humanitarian commission in La Guajira is a mission that branches from YWAM in Medellin, Colombia. We believe that being the hands and feet of Jesus means providing refuge for orphans, food for the hungry, and joy to the hopeless. In January 2016 God called Silia Contreras to become a full-time missionary to share the Gospel and mobilize professionals with their gifts and talents to serve displaced families from the armed conflict, widows, orphans, the persecuted church, and children whose rights had been violated. La Guajira’s citizens suffer from state abandonment and consequently experience great political corruption. The indigenous Wayúu communities are the most vulnerable. This project is carried out in Uribia, a Colombian municipality in northern Guajira known as the “indigenous capital of Colombia”. The majority of its population is part of the Wayúu people, who have inhabited this territory since pre-Colombian times and are recognized as the collective owner of the great indigenous reserve of Alta and Media Guajira (upper and middle). More than 1,500 Wayúu families and Venezuelan migrants live in extreme poverty lacking basic services like water, electricity, and a sanitary sewage system. In addition to long-term projects, like building and establishing un Comedor, or Community table where discipleship and humanitarian interventions can take place, annual medical brigades have been held since 2016. During the brigades, free, personalized health care is offered by physicians, dentists, nurses, and therapists. Volunteers of all backgrounds join the brigades, such as handymen, teachers, hair stylists, environmentalists, church leaders, cooks, etc. Our desire and prayer is that anyone can join in blessing others with their skills. We believe everyone has a skill God can use in our projects. In addition, VBS is provided for children when visiting the Brigades with their families. We are always in need of volunteers.
