We're off to Guatemala

We are driving to Guatemala this morning; thankfully, William Flores is going with us so we don't have to negotiate the trip and the border alone.  He will be taking the bus back to El Salvador this afternoon--that's real friendship because a 6-hour bus ride is not anyone's idea of a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

We are going to spend 8 weeks taking Spanish classes at Centro Linguistico International in Antigua.  We will be living with a Guatemalan family and taking classes 6 hours per day.  We will also be working with Pastors Nelson and Javier at Iglesia Bautista Vida Nueva in Guatemala City.  

Please pray for:

     Our focus and mental capacity to handle classes and conquer the language

     Opportunity to share the gospel with our Guatemalan family and other students

     Opportunity to bless the pastors and church family at Iglesia Bautista Vida Nueva, Guatemala City

     Ministry here in El Salvador, especially for Jeff, Paula and Emily as they continue the work without our help
