We are not dare going to complain about being busy with a team! The Grace Mountain has been quiet for many months, so busyness from the mission house is definitely welcomed. Last Wednesday, a team consisting of 6 people arrived in Guatemala. They hit the ground running with lots of things to accomplish. Ross Genzink … More A Recap of the Week!

Our hearts are overflowing with joy as we think about the soccer clinics from this past week! Soccer is one thing that will get the attention of the Guatemalans. Thankfully, Coach Abel came to host the first Colegio JET Soccer Clinic. There were a total of 90 students participating in 2 hour sessions. They laughed, … More Soccer!

We officially ended the school year last week. All grades and reports were turned in to the Ministry of Education. Someone blessed the teachers with a meal at Las Antorches last week.

In March we began the weekly routine of passing out a bag of food to families. The priority has been to care for the families from the school. Then we would provide food to elders, single mothers, and families in need. Every week we bought food, bagged food, and delivered food. Redundant. Nothing Glorious. A … More Bus Ministry!

It’s almost time to load the container, close the doors, and send it to Guatemala! Unfortunately, Soy and I left just a few days before the real container work began!
