A Glimpse back at December

We met these friends at the Atlanta airport and flew back to Guatemala on the same flight.
This group from Central Baptist, Phenix City, AL, arrived to work
with a fellow missionary in the capital.
It was while serving at this church in the early eighties
that God first opened our eyes to the people of Guatemala.
 
 
We met the vision team from Abilene Baptist, Augusta, GA, and watched
as God opened their partnership with Iglesia Bautista Belen, Santa Barbara, Guatemala,
to reach an unreached area in Pochuta.
 
 
 
It was back to Mazatenango to meet Pastor Walter and his wife
to "ride the roads" viewing possible future partnership sites....
 

and home in time to hear



to join Grandson Adams.


We spent a little time with one of the heros of the faiths,



shared a ladies lunch celebrating this dear one's birthday
(another hero of the faith)
 
 
and Christmas cheer with the entire Guatemala mission family.



We sent these two back to the states to collect some GRANDloving
from their seven delights and their moms and dads too,


and brought this little cutie home with us
who gave us lots of loving too.




We celebrated Christmas lunch at one of our favorites places 
 
 
and then welcomed this team
 
 
 
and assisted as they worked alongside the pastor and his entire family
 
 
sharing the love of Jesus with boys and girls in
 
Vacation Bible School in El Porvenir II.
 
 
We enjoyed a visit with long time special friends
 
 
and their children 

 
 
 before welcoming in 2013 back in the capital greeting friends
home  from their Christmas loving and
returning sweet "Mitzi Lou" to her foster family #1.
 
 
Knowing God has prepared the way,
we are now refreshed and ready to launch out into 2013
Keep following our journey as we walk where He directs.
