Tuesday October 6, 2009





Greetings for Guatemala,

Yes it seems like it has been a while in one sense while on the other hand it has only started. We continued to build houses today and have 14 in some form of being built with about 8 completely done. We will finish most of these completely tomorrow and get ready for the rest of the week. We also painted the bottom half of the gym at the seminary this morning with one team before going to the village. We had an awesome Bible school again led by Stacie and the group with Mark Mast helping with the story. Upon the conclusion of the Bible school we started our village ministry which consisted of distribution of food, clothes, toiletries, books and toys to 100 families. Each family had been visited and selected by the pastor and deacons of the local church at the village. This was in a word, "AWESOME". We concluded this by standing around the pastor and deacons in a circle and singing "Our God is an AWESOME God"! If anyone has any doubt about this being true you should be with us on this trip.

Tomorrow we will complete the painting at the gym, finish the building except for a few details them come back for another great meal prepared by Adeline and Mrs. Tina Mast from Canada who is leading our cooking crew.

I think everyone is doing well here although I am quite sure some are homesick for their loved ones but the week will come to a close very soon. Continue to pray as we strive to be a blessing as we have been blessed.
