The Group got here safely. We had 27 people at supper Thursday night.

Friday started our work time with the group. We had planned a lot of work outside but God had other plans for us. It rained almost the whole time that the group was here. The group was able to dig a ditch for a water line for the store building. We also had the group put in some windows and do a lot of painting. Thank you to everyone in the group for all the work that you did here. The group had to take a buss to get back to the capital because the roads are so bad after three days of rain. Please pray that the roads get repaired quickly.

Uncle Ken went to the Capital this morning to get the group. We will have 27 or 28 people at supper tonight. Aunt Cindy and I stayed here in Patzún to get supper ready. We have most of it done we just have to put it in one dish and heat it up. We are having shepherds pie. I can't wait.

Please pray for us this weekend as we work. Pray for safety and that we will get more done then we think that we will be able to.

Please continue to pray for my sister and her husband they have all of their paper work in the states and in Columbia approved and they are only waiting to be told when they can fly to Columbia and get Cameron. Pray that they will be able to go and come back before June 23rd. I will be going home for a visit and I would love to meet Cameron while I am there.

Thank you and God bless you all.

Today I went with the school to see a parade. It lasted for an hour. With a bunch of schools in it and a bunch of costumes and bands. I have never seen anything like it before.

May 16, 2010

Today we saw a parade. I am not sure what it was for but it was fun. It when right passed the church so we were able to go out and watch it. Here is a video of some of the parade. This video is not very good but you can see some of the horses they had doing tricks.

I just finished another wonderful day of teaching.

The children are great. I am trying to do a lot of teaching in 30 minutes so pray that the children will be able to understand and remember what they have been taught. We have another test coming the end of this month and they need to know what they have been taught.

These are some of my children. Aren't they great?

Thank you for your prayers. Pray that God will give me clear direction for what HE holds for next year.

God bless.

Last week I attended a missions conference at SETECA.

I met a lot of wonderful people from many different countries.

I met a man from Honduras.

I met some men from Mexico and a man form Uruguay

(the man on the far left in the grey is from Uruguay).

I met some people from Panama.

My room mate (in the green) was from Costa Rica.

I met a man from Nigeria (in the middle) and one of the main speakers.

I met a woman from EL Salvador.

I also met the president CAM International in Texas

And the man (the man right next to me) in charge of the mobilization office at CAM International Texas.

Most of all we all met with God. I do not think that anyone went home without hearing from the Lord. We all heard something different but we all heard something from the LORD.
