Who they are

The Cakchiquel of Acatenango are a Mayan subgroup living on the fertile, mountainous slopes near the Acatenango volcano in Guatemala. Known for their traditional cultivation of coffee and corn, they preserve their mother tongue and a strong sense of community life.

Their culture reflects ancestral roots alongside an established Christian presence, facing the ongoing challenge of deepening biblical discipleship among the younger generations.
