A Refreshing Weekend














6-22-10-- Tuesday

Hello all! I apologize for the delay in posting a blog, but I wanted to tell you about the events of last weekend. I traveled with Mr. and Mrs. Boggs to a few of the churches they have started. Saturday afternoon we were at Iglesia Biblica Bautista Manantial de Vida in a town called San Jose. The pastor is a man named Israel. This church was having a Father's Day celebration. There was singing, preaching, games, gifts for the fathers (i got a gift---I guess representing my dad...), and there was of course food! It was truly a blessing to worship and fellowship with those believers. That evening we went back to our hotel. Sunday morning we were at Iglesia Bautista El Calvario in San Marcos. It was another blessed time to share and fellowship with believers. The pastor of this church is a man named Job Fuentes. I was given the opportunity to share a testimony and Mr. Boggs delivered a message. Afterward....can't guess? FOOD! That afternoon we traveled to our third and final stop...Iglesia Cristiana Bautista Maranatha in Santa Irene. I truly cannot express on here how blessed this time was! I've said it before, but its so great to praise the same God in a different language with my Guatemalan brothers and sisters in Christ. Pastor Azael Calderon gave me an opportunity again to share a testimony. Praise God for these opportunities! And, you should know by now, after the service there was....food, glorious food. Just a side note---I'm becoming quite familiar with tortillas and tamales---two staples here. Tortillas are an everday thing :)

As far as things at the school and here at Eagle's Nest, they are moving along as normal. We are still having the swimming classes and looking forward to this Thursday, the 24th. The school has a "field day" and I will be planning the games and all that fun stuff---maybe water balloons??? Well until later, God bless! Look forward to reporting more to you all soon!
