Thank you for your prayers!

Greetings from Guatemala! 

Thank you for your prayers.  Travel went smooth all the way to Guatemala City and we breezed through customs faster than we are used to.  After that, the only snag we had was to experience a true Guatemala City traffic jam that put us back a couple hours.  We were [are] tired, for sure, but the silver lining was getting to know each other a bit better with more time in the vans.

We arrived safely to the mission house at 4:30, went out for dinner to Pollo Campero with Lazaro's family and Tico, and are now winding down so we can be rested for tomorrow.  

Tomorrow will be an important day as we meet those who we will be serving this week.  Please pray that we can be fully present, that we seek out opportunities to show God's love, and that we will have the courage and will to truly engage with those we come in contact with.  

Thanks!
