I did not know what to expect from this journey.
The culture and atmosphere was different from the moment I stepped foot in Chaparral.
I felt lost at first, but everything changed when.
In the United States, in our two communities of Worcester and Chaparral in Mexico, we have
volunteers working alongside with us in our ministries with immigrants, with children,
with elderly, with people in need.
Chaparral is a semi-agriculated community, that is, it is outside the city, a community
mostly composed of people of Mexican origin.
It is a large community, about 23,000 people, more or less, and it is a very solid community
with the needs of its own community, very open and very welcoming.
For quite some time, I've struggled to completely understand the four main pillars of an AMA,
surface, community, faith and solidarity.
It wasn't until I spent time in Chaparral as an AMA where I was finally able to let
my actions speak louder than my words to help me comprehend the AMA values.
It is super necessary that we have an extra help, when we do the English exam, the children
and their families.
I never met a place like Chaparral where the people are always welcoming, it's such
a technique in the community, a lot of groups will come visit Chaparral and they're like
I don't want to leave, but I don't know why.
I don't want to leave, but I don't want to leave, but I don't want to leave, but I don't
want to leave, but I don't want to leave, but I don't want to leave, but I don't want
to leave, but I don't want to leave, but I don't want to leave, but I don't want to

When they come, they ask where is Maria, where is Kevin?
The AMA program can be tailored to many different career paths.

Our program here and internationally is truly like an extended family.
Once you become an AMA, you are always an AMA.
Now it's your turn to be an AMA, so take a chance, give God a chance, and say yes.
Only we have the power to make a difference and be the voice of a community.
