Guatemala Trip Dec - Update

Just a quick note of update!

While at first somewhat discouraged about the resources needed for this trip, turn out I should have not worried and just trusted all along - (Matt 6: 25 and following is a good reminder!)

suffice to say God is providing! and working through many!

thanks everyone, we have sports uniforms for the school in El Zapotillo - I think this is huge - These uniforms will help the School be a School, will aid in the learning and effectiveness of what is happening there... And with Education, something that is not a given in Guatemala, comes a hope for a better future, a better community.

We also have vitamins coming! - Lots of them - This too is a major step - The diet in the villages were we work is far from meeting the need. These vitamins will go a long way in building strong bodies and futures, not to mention sending the message of love, care and provision.

Also going to Guatemala with us are school supplies. Living in a dollar store world as we do, we take for granted the part a pencil, paper, a ruler etc... played in helping give us the opportunities we have enjoyed. By providing these supplies (and the center in which to teach!) you are speaking great HOPE into young lives!

Thanks Everyone.... Let's keep going!
