We have now realized that we are leaving two weeks from today!! Our family has been assigned teams and we are preparing for what we will do on those teams. Joel is on a computer team that will be setting up a computer lab at one of the churches. The laptops are being configured this morning, and will be brought down in carry-on luggage by some of the adults on the team. Alayne and the kids will be working with a children's team that will be putting on a little show for the local schools and playing with the kids there. We are also preparing for this. The kids will have the chance to give their testimony (in Spanish) in front of the Guatemalan school kids, as well as recite their favorite verse, in Spanish. The pastor who is organizing this team is a professional clown, so we are learning how to make balloon animals!! Our dog has not been happy about the balloon experiments!! As we are getting close, here are some specific prayer requests for our family:
Joel and Alayne
To not be so caught up in the details that we miss what God wants to teach us
For smooth preparations
For both of our jobs to not be too demanding so we can get everything done before we go
For our funding
The kids
To open their hearts to this n experience
To be helpful in getting their part of things done these next two weeks.
Thank you for you support. We appreciate and love all of you!
