Church Service Celebration

Today we had a full day of ministry in our host town of San Lucas Toliman.  We did the English teaching here, the home visitations, the dental and medical clinic, the children's ministry and the Alcoholism and Recovery ministry.

We also had the water filtration team going to other sites that are a couple of hours of travel by car from where we were today.

We got our ministry bags, (thank you for praying!) which means, some of our ministries can get more supplies to finish their work. Please pray for the water filtration ministry as the delay in the ministry bags getting here meant they are behind in their filter installation and servicing.

One of the special things that happen during the trip on Thursday night is the Celebration!  The 10 churches we work with come to the host town and we praise together, pray together and learn together. Wooddale sends with the team a pastor.  We have Pastor Tom Correll with us this year and he preached on Daniel 6.  We learned that we need to "Pitch our tent" with God and follow his lead and say "we will follow you Lord" no matter the crisis or circumstances we face, He is there to protect us.  What a great time it was to see old friends and reconnect with them.  They all remember us and are grateful for the relationships we have and have build through the 19 years we have been coming to the Lake Atitlan area.

The church was full, many came from their towns by boat or bus, it is such a blessing to see all of them!!!

Tomorrow most of the team will be traveling by boat to San Pablo, one of the poorest towns around the Lake.  Please pray for a safe ride, a great time to minister to this special people and energy for the last day of ministry.  Thank you again for your prayer support, we couldn't fight the battle without it!!!

Have a blessed and rested night.
Buenas noches!
