Mom it’s snowing like crazy here!! Does the Blazer work to plow? Where is the key? Jamie said she can come and plow but I don’t want her to drive out here if it doesn’t work or we can’t find the key! I can shovel the driveway but the road is bad Hopefully you can check this soon! Love you!!
Hope you are enjoying the snow. We are pretty much fried. What a neat little village, working it’s way down the valley. The kids love to help and even some of the parents. The scenery is absolutely fabulous. It takes an hour and a half to get to the village we are working in. We get up at 5 and leave by 6. Day 1 we framed and put walls on the house, today we sanded drywall and stuckled the outside. Tomorrow we will paint , roof and dedicate the houses. It is almost 10 so I am ready for bed. See you all soon.
We finished our homes today. The family received a new bed and lots of clothes and other goodies. Each home also received a quilt for their bed made by the quilters guild at Vriesland church. The homes were dedicated and then the residents witnessed to. All families accepted Christ. Afterwards the pinata was hung and the kids took turns trying to break it open. Then the ride home to PIZZA. Tomorrow we get to sleep in. Then off to a clinic.
Sounds like you guys really worked hard…and the people so appreciative…will surely make you appreciate what a spoiled life we have here….have a safe trip back home…. waiting to see pics.
Hey just wanted to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers…. we hope all is going well!!!!! Bonnie had surgery on thursday and was discharged on Friday. Everything went well and she hurts at the incision sites but feels sooooo much better
Wow sounds like you guys are really keeping busy. Good news that all the families accepted Christ. Praying you have a safe return. Can’t wait to hear your stories. Marlys
We have lots of pictures. Everyones pictures are downloaded on our computer. We may have to have a picture party when we get home.
Today we did a clinic. Dan and Johanna asked questions and check people, and then prescribed meds. Some of us put the meds in bags for each person. Perscription and overthe counter med. After the clinic they showed the Jesus film and Harmano-Jesus had a sermon and then an alter call. All adults received a New Testement and the kids got books or coloring books. It was a good day.
Tomorrow we go towards the coast. It will be hot and humid. (can you all imagine!!!!!!!) I will try to bring some back for all of you.
Yesterday was another clinic. We saw lots of people. There were a lot of kids to play with. The people applauded us when we walk through their gate, they were very glad we were there. The Guatemalans are very hospitable people.
