Day 9

We had a wonderful day praising God in the church we were able to help last year. The people there were glad to see us again and and welcomed the new team members as if they were returning as well. Many of the people were asking about the other team members and to greet you all in the name of Jesus. They also said that they kept us in there payers asking God to bless us for coming to work along side them as they reach the lost in their community.

Day 5

What a long day! We were up at 6:30 and we loaded the bikes onto the truck at 10pm. We had a full day starting at the William Cornelious Technical school where we met with the students and staff to share some testimonies and object lessons. Then we went to the church under the bridge and had a time with Pastor Louis and Glenda as well as some playtime with the kids.
Next it was back to work at the site pouring more cement for the columns and the ladies put packages together for the church we will be visiting tomorrow. The bikes that we repaired were loaded in the truck, ready for the kids we visit tomorrow.

Day 4

Today, the ladies visited the maternity hospital, where they enjoyed a special time of baby-holding, encouraging and praying with the women and newborns. The mothers and staff were so thankful for the gifts!

The men had another fun filled day. We started the day checking over some bikes that needed repair and made a list of parts needed before we take them to a village outside the city.

The walls are nearly up to the requred hight but alot more cement is to be mixed and carried to fill the reinforced colums whitch will support the new roof.

We also had a couple of helpers we they wern't required to attend school.

Thank you again for all your prayers and support.

Day 3 was another day filled with sorting and packing for the women, they were able to fill 40 family bags for relief/outreach to a comunity outside of Guatemala city. They also prepaired 70 nurse/mom bags for the hospital trip as well as 70 bags for the ladies at a church.

The men spent the day wiring rebar together ,working with the local workers at the site as well picking up bicycals that will be checked over the next few days and then brought to school kids that have to walk 1.5 to 2hrs to school everyday. One wall of the church is almost complete with just a few more colums to do.

Thank You

Day two

Today was a little more relaxed, as most of you know we had a skype conservation with our family at broadway this morning. Everything went well until the last few seconds when we had a power blip and the router went down.
We then went to the mega church in Guatemala city and enjoyed the Spanish singing and then preaching with an interpreter.
The rest of the day was spent having lunch and sight seeing in Antigua. Tomorrow will be another day of construction work for the men and more sorting and packages to put together for the women.
Thank you again for your prayers as we continue with our mission in this beautiful land,
