We’ve been in ChiChi for about 3 days but honesty it feels like we live here. We have a little family. I can’t get over the unity of this team. I just realized we’ve been away from our homes for about a week and that’s just weird. On Wednesday, 1/29/18 our team split into two groups and went to the local school to teach. I was on Team B who went from 3:30-6:00 and it was amazing. All the children wore red uniforms and were basically bouncing off the walls when we walked into the school. I loved teaching. The class began with a simple prayer, in which the students repeated in well spoken English. Afterwords we wrote 1 Timothy 4:4 “For every creature of God is good” and taught it to them. We sang “God is so good (to me)” and “Head Shoulders Knees and Toes”.
You guys wanna know the best part? The school isn’t a Christian school. How were we able to do all this? Because GOD IS SO GOOD, and our host Juan is a Spirit led man. Overall we talked to about 92 children, which means, if only half of them prayed and understood we had at least 46 children who understood the goodness of God. My point? Ministry isn’t always supernatural healings, amazing sermons or reaping a harvest – those things will all happen, I’m sure of it and I’m so excited to experience it first hand here in Guatemala however some days it’s being the hands and feet, loving on the kids and the elderly and everyone in between. Reminds me of the song our group picked up yesterday “And they’ll know we are Christians by our LOVE”.
Thank you to everyone who is praying for my team and I, thank you to everyone who provided for this trip to be able to happen. Thank you for being the church, without walls.
Acts 18:9-10 “Don’t be afraid! Speak out! Don’t be silent! For I am with you, and no one will attack and harm you, for many people in this city BELONG TO ME.”
