Coming back from Jerez, a scouting trip for Op Go on Monday, we had our 2nd car accident here in Guatemala. It could have been much worse, Keith was able to slide into the side of him (a big truck), instead of plowing into the back, or hitting the concrete ditch on the right side. We felt very blessed that we were not injured. The guy just drove off, you could not tell that his truck had been hit (it was old anyway), our Toyota was drivable, but K had to get out the passenger side. It was just another grand cultural experience for us. Our 1st accident, neither had been our fault, thank goodness, a guy hit the back of our Toyota, damaged his front, but not ours. We really mean it when we say 'thank you for your prayers'; we feel them and we give Him praise for sustaining us while being here. Other things, there is not the space for, just know He is working in all that is happening and we are grateful to you and to Him. Saturday we leave again with another team from Elmore Baptist Association - pray His will be done on earth as it is in heaven; we are so privileged to be a part of that here in Guatemala.

The last team was from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary & they were anything but boring here. We had such a good time with all of them & God truly blessed their efforts they put forth & His protection & provision was mightily evident throughout our stay in Rio Hondo. It is a privilege for us to be a part of the teams that come to Guatemala; God sends us His best.

This is our home church from ISBC in TN. They came to work with us in Operation Go in Jalapa with Pastor Herberto and his church. We had a great time; the Lord really blessed with seed sowing and harvesting. They blessed us with their presence and gifts and it was such an encouragement to us to have family (which is how we think of them) here and work together for His kingdom.
