Guatemala Day 6

The early morning traffic jam was a great way to start our last work day!  







Houses were completed and the teams were quite tired.  Our farewells to Home Site 1 and Home Site 2 were very touching.  Many tears were shed by the family and by our team members.  They are grateful for the home and they asked God to bless us on our travels and for the rest of our lives.  Home Site 3 had a delightful send-off with a very extended family present.  The beautiful prayer of blessing by the grandmother for all the team members was quite moving.  With many hugs and final pictures we said our "good-byes".  











I don't have the pics from Site 3...I'll post those tomorrow.


Children's Bible School was held twice in one day.  The first was at San Lorenzo in the plaza.  Our team was fresh and ready to engage the children.  Becka had some great projects that transported well.  In the afternoon the Children's Bible School moved to The Central Park in Ciudad Vieja...Matthew Williamson met the challenge of telling a Bible story all in Spanish to the gathered children.  

The staff at the Kairos School has been most helpful and they are hoping to see us all back again in two years!
