We are officially home! It's a bittersweet homecoming. We are glad to be home, but very sad about leaving the new relationships behind. I can honestly say that I am tired. I walked in the door and the mental exhaustion hit. I want to thank all that have held us up in prayer. The comments were that it was noticed and appreciated. I am excited to hear, in years to come, what kind of impact we had the opportunity to leave in Guatemala. I keep hearing that the people are hungry for Truth and they are very open to hearing the message of Truth.
On the airplane, I was placed 7 rows or more in front of the rest of the team. I was bummed. I wanted to talk about the trip and how they were doing. But God had another thing up his sleeve. I sat next to a man who was also a believer and had married a Guatemalan woman and had a heart for Evangelism and Discipleship. We talked for an hour about his being apart of starting two churches in Guatemala and just worshiping together as we talked about God's faithfulness and love for His creation.
Please ask about the trip. Many of us are still working through, and will be for a while working through, what happened down in Guatemala. We experienced much that was mental and had extreme depth within our souls.
We do not have any idea how many came to know the Lord through our saying, "Yes and Amen to everything in His heart," as we accepted the call to be sent out. We do know that children and adults came to know Jesus for the first time. Let us pray that discipleship finds these people. We know and trust that the Guatemalan missionaries with Mission Impact will follow up.
I am going to send the last of the pictures. Again, thanks for following the blogs. It was a blessing to us all to know that we were prayed for and there were people excited about what we were doing.
There weren't adults and youth on the team, but
it was the body of Christ serving together, using their individual gifts and abilities and passions and talents for the Kingdom of God and glory be to Him.
