After a full day of travelling, we had a good night's rest at Seteca, the largest theological seminary school in Central America. The grounds are beautiful. It's a quiet oasis in the midst of much cement.
We had an early start today. After breakfast at Pollo Campero, we spent an hour in down town Guatemala. Holy week is coming to an end and the streets were full of people and parades. The mix of catholicism and rituals from the mayan traditions are an overwhelming sight to see.
We travelled safely toTactic this afternoon. We are getting settled and and off to tour the grounds. Unfortunately, there is no wifi access. To be able to blog, we need to borrow a data stick from the Guest House hosts and use their computer. We will try to update occasionally to advise you of our prayer needs and our experiences. When possible we'll try to post a picture or two. For now, please know we are safe and excited to be here.
Hey guys I was just reading 2 Corinthians 9:12-15 and it made me think of you all. I'm praying for you guys!

Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you. Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!”
So great to get your update! Praying for you all, trusting God to reveal Himself to each of you through your experiences and the people you meet. I've been so encouraged going through your prayer requests... I love seeing many of your hearts for ministry and seeking courage to step out of your comfort zone to serve! God will accomplish great things through each of you!!
