Today we sent off Team I back to Houston as Team 2 arrived safely, minus 3 bags, which we are praying will arrive tomorrow. Last night was a tremendous time of sharing after an amazing week of ministry and the end of a beautiful day. On our return to Guatemala City, we took a ferry across Lake Atitlan to spend a few hours in Panajachel, another pretty little town on the lake front. It is more “touristy” than San Pedro, but it was fun to shop in the market area filled with small stores full of colorful Guatemalan handiwork. Then it was back in the vans to complete the drive to the city, pack up and take some time to reflect on what the Lord had shown each of us during the week. Each person on the team was touched in various ways; eyes have been opened in new ways, hearts stirred, and none of us will be the same. We were all grateful for the opportunity to minister, get to know the gracious Guatemalans, begin to understand their lives/needs, and a desire to continue to pray and be involved in this ministry. We have been His hands and feet, sharing His hugs and hope, His truth and love. What a privilege!
Now we prepare for outreach in Palencia; a different sort of town and situation, but with great needs for ministry. It will be another very full week, and we covet your prayers and we continue to pray for the Lord to work in and through us to further His kingdom in Guatemala. Thank you, Lord, for allowing us to join You in Your work!
