It is day one but in some ways it seems like day two or three. The remaining 27 members of our team arrived safely this afternoon coming from Louisiana, Michigan, and Texas. Thanks to Continental & Delta for getting them here on time.
The vans rolled in between 3:00 – 3:30PM and soon the luggage was dispersed to the respective rooms and the storage area (ministry supplies). We had a brief meeting and then took about thirty minutes before leaving for Chimaltenango and supper. Folks exchanged money, ate, and enjoyed a time of fellowship.
The C8 actually met us at the restaurant as they returned from a day of climing the volcano. They seemed to have had a good time.
So, now folks are winding down and getting ready for bed as we have breakfast at 6:00AM tomorrow. Our worship time will begin at 7:00AM and then we will begin building houses in Chimaltenango.
Pray for us as we are 40 folks from Canada and four states seeking to become one team to the glory of God! I am excited to see what God will do in our midst during these days.
I imagine that my posting will be in the evening each day so please check us out daily! Hope you have a great evening and Roll Tide! (Bret Hart – I am sharing the apartment with a die hard LSWho fan (Danny LeBlanc) which may be cause for me to break out my Razorbacks t-shirt)
