Greetings from Guatemala and the second of three summer trips from Friendship! We arrived in Dallas on time with a seven hour layover (love it) so with the special help from Melissa Brady, her mom, Mona, Bobby (bus driver) & Martha, and First Baptist Church of Lakeside for the use of their mini-bus, we loaded up, went downtown Dallas, ate at Sonny’s BBQ, and spent several hours at the JFK Museum! We returned to the airport and ended up with an hour delay due to mechanical problems (that’s encouraging)! Landed in Guatemala at 8:30 pmGuatemala time. Arrived at mission house at 11:30 pm! Long story but it all worked out well…made for a very long day! We let the folks sleep in an extra hour today! Had a wonderful breakfast, did devotions, and went to a new village as far as houses are concerned! We were working on our sixth house in various stages of completion when the rains set in for the day. Only one house ready to do concrete so we have a ways to go! Our plans our to get up early and go directly to work tomorrow. We will have our devotion after supper. The pattern of rain is typical … afternoon rains into the night. The team of 7 men and 18 ladies total did a fantastic job today! Looking forward to another great day tomorrow! I have to mention that our cooks made a meal fit for a king! The clean up crew were amazing! Several of our good friends showed up to eat! (They were invited!). Ha! Ha! We chose to help several married seminary students this week! We had three of them work with us. We were blessed by their presence!
