We came to Zacapa yesterday and on the way our excitement began as the door of the bus opened and luggage spilled onto the side of a winding mountain road, we quickly jumped out and ran back 1/2 mile collecting luggage. Luckily all luggage was collected with minimal damage, even the projector that fell out didn´t even have a broken bulb (and that surprised us all) the sewing machine looked like a goner but again suprisingly enough it worked today too!
We went to a small area last night to do ministry and had about 60 adults and 50 kids come and we witnessed and had a great time. Today was awesome as we went to a public school and the drama team did two performances the first had about 360 kids the second had about 300. There were many salvations here and it was heart wrenching. The womens ministry had about 12 come out to learn some new crafts and children had several hundred. Later today we went to another school and had almost 1000 come out to see Dr. Tom, even though we had trouble with the equipment we pulled it off, Dr. Tom translated what the drama team performed. The children´s area had lots of Noah´s ark crafts going on and Normandy led her talk on Creation as well. We prayed at the end and many hands went up asking Jesus into their heart.
Guatemala is amazing, the people, the land and even the food.
From Danielle to Jared I love you! 222! Can´t wait to see you Saturday
From Jen to Family I miss all of you so much and can´`t wait to see you. I love you!!!

Tuesday
Today was amazing we went into a public school and ministered and several children ask Jesus into their heart. Everyone was thankful we were there.
We played on the slide with the children and had lots of fun.
June update: Judgement house is reaping some rewards as the Shalom church has followed up with 300 home visits and had many many more come to know Jesus. Many Judgement house people have been attending the women´s ministries and are bringing families to hear about Jesus.
We are on the way to Zacapa today for 2 days and will be doing lots of great things.
We miss all of you terribly.
Love Ya!!!!

Day 3
Last night we presented Dr. Tom´s speech and the Drama to a church in the upper part of town called La Camino. The Drama went well we had about 25 in attendance. We heard testimonies from Rebecca and Patti they were wonderful! We have grown so close as a team.
Today we are back at Shalom and we are doing crafts with the children, sewing projects withthe ladies and the drama this morning. This evening we are going to the university to present our Drama again.
Being away from home is making some of us home sick but we are having a good time worshiping and fellowshiping.
Tomorrow we go to Zacapa so there might not be a blog again until Friday.
We love you guys!!!!
