Lecciones aprendidas en Guatemala / Lessons Learned in Guatemala

with Jamie Rose McNeil, Lay Leader
Sunday, July 13th, 2025 at 10 a.m.

Stepping out of your comfort zone can sometimes be challenging, but it can also provide opportunities for amazing cross-cultural learning and self-growth. Join Jamie Rose McNeil as she recounts some of her experiences in Guatemala as a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer, what Americans can discover through interacting with Guatemalans, and what we can learn from one another when we openly share our language, culture, and hearts.

Jamie Rose McNeil was a Youth in Development Peace Corps Guatemala Volunteer from 2022-23, where her responsibilities included teaching Life Skills and English to elementary and middle school youth. She is passionate about immigration and social justice and now works as a legal assistant at Bend Immigration Group, preparing the applications that help clients navigate the complex maze of U.S. immigration. In her free time, she enjoys cooking, singing, and hiking with her mom and golden retriever, Rowan.
