VOLUNTARY WORKERS:

In these last 6 years, many voluntary workers have come to offer their services in San Manuel Chaparrón. Some came for a few weeks and others for a year or more. The services they offered have left a mark in the hearts of Chaparron people who have always welcomed them with joy and enthusiasm. Many have provided manual help in construction, and with the simplest and humblest of people, whereas others simply offered presence of Christian Joy and community.
