Adventure
Hello,
Its been 2 months since I started my adventure here in Guatemala. Each day I spend with the interns I love them more and more, They are amazing people and I cant wait to see what they do for the kingdom.
Last week was our first week back after a week vacation. The interns were all excited and happy to get back to one another.
I had my own adventure during vacation. I took a chicken bus to Antigua with Tita and Dulce (2 first yr girls). Ill be honest it was kinda scary, i prayed the whole way there. Chicken busses are not the right kind of transportation for white people let alone women. But we had to. So we took our bus to Antigua. It was super hot and crowded with 3 people to a seat with the craziest music ever. The drivers drive crazy around the curves to antigua. It was adventure but I was glad to arrive in Antigua. I spent the weekend there and got to know the town better and got to meet the interns friends. We hiked up over 200 steps to Cerro de la Cruz. It is a beautiful cross that overlooks the entire town of Antigua! It was amazing! I also rode in a tuk tuk for the first time while we were traveling to Dulce’s families house. Its like being on a wooden roller coaster. you know the shaking and bring thrown around feeling. After I went back home i ended up back in Antigua with Laura for her wedding errands. Her mom treated us to a wonderful lunch at a beautiful restaurant called Sabe Rico. As you can see my vacation was fun and full of new things.
The interns are counting down they have 3 months til graduation. I am now teaching a class called Living Before Gods Eyes. This is a brief summary of what my class will focus on, im still putting together the final details.
-
it will focus on how to live a focused life, that our salvation is not based on works but our rewards in heaven are, and do we do Godly things because we love God or because we want a big ministry. Basically its living the first commandment. Love God with all your heart.
-
Do we put God first or our spouse or our ministry.
and how one day we will face Jesus and hear about our lives. Did we waste our life or did we love the one who gave us all with all our heart and time.
We had a crazy storm yesterday while we were practicing intern theater. We had golf ball size hail and a tornado in zone 8. The tornado was close as we were in zone 9 at the time. It caused a lot of damage in the area. People lost their homes and roofs.
Prayer request: Some of the intern haven’t been able to pay their tuition and due to the hard economic time we have to send them home on friday if they dont come up with the money. Please pray for a miracle so the 3 interns can stay with us!
I hope you are all doing well! I love you!
