Here we are Guatemala Twenty10

Sunday Day 1

Today was a travel day. We started out in the Gulfport Airport at 4:30am. Once we all got through the line and past security we loaded the plane. Only 23 minutes late for take off. Gotta love airport computers. We arrived in Houston and changed planes to Guatemala City. We made it safe and sound here just before noon.

Our team here from Mission Discovery was waiting for us just outside the airport. The short trip to Antigua was a smooth ride. The view here is amazing like always. Flying in on the plane you can see all the green farmland and coffee plantations.

Our hotel here in Antigua is Los Bucaros. It is a open air hotel, which of course means no A/C. Don’t let the no A/C part fool you. The temp her yesterday was in the low 70’s and the temp last night was in the low 60’s. We all found our rooms here to be nice and comfortable for missionary living. There is a nice courtyard in the middle with beautiful plants. We had an amazing diner. The menu was Steak, some awesome zucchini, a green salad and rice.

We concluded our evening with a worship time and share time with Rebecca missionary we will be working in. Her and her husband Andrew have been working in Guatemala 11 years. She really shard some great stories of how they have had opportunities to do some great work here. It was awesome to hear the voices praising God last night. Our voices filled the streets of Antigua with praises to God.

Tomorrow we will be working at the school here that has about 300 children. We will also be working on a construction project consisting of replacing a roof.

Continue to pray for our safety. Pay as we work with the children at the school and at the work site that we can show them the love of Christ. Pray for opportunities to share with them. Pray for Rebecca and Andrew the missionaries here. Thank you for your prayers.
