Just because......



The kids went into Antigua with some of the team members and had a fun sightseeing day. This was when Bob was going through the kidney stone incident so he and I did not go. The local boys challenged our guys to a basketball game. Not sure who won but they all had a good time.

Playing with the kids





The first two pictures are kids in the 'hood. Little Sandra loves playing with the boys and went squirrel hunting with them. Then her brothers poised her with the 3 DEAD squirrrels-she loved it. The pictures of Adam and Eli each holding a boy was taken at the large refugee camp during one of our VBS days there. Please pray for the locals as the rainy season is just beginning again and they still have much fear. Last night and the night before we had hard rain and one little slide up the road from us. All is well in our area.

Ministry






These pictures show some of the ministry we are doing here. The girls' hula is always well received. The boys' Hauka usually gets a few laughs, though it is not meant to. The Hauka is a Warrior dance that is calling down the power of God before going to battle. It just looks a little odd. Both the boys participate in dramas which the people seem to enjoy. We have ministered in churches, schools, two refugee camps and in our neighborhood. It is such a blessing to us when we reach out and do the things the Lord asks of us. We pray the people here are blessed and drawn to the Lord as we minister to them in the various ways he has gifted us. Please be praying for the people of Guatemala to get beyond religion and receive the Lord.

in Guatemala

Hola, we are doing great. After Bob suffering from kidney stones for the first five days, things are now rolling along. Building block homes at the refugee camp and working with kids. We also have been just spenidng time at two diffrent camps hanging out with the kids and adults. Playing ball, doing bead work, nothing like they do though, teaching a little english, learning a little spanish and getting to know them. WE really desire to develope relationships as we will be here for a couple of months. Please pray we will stay strong in our health and spiritually. The team has suffered minor health issues but is doing well. The food is great. THe people are lovely and very freindly. the camp we are staying at was minorly effected by a small mud slide so we are helping them dig out. We all have beds and moslty hot showers. PTL. I will try to put some pictures on here next week. Adios.
