No rest for the weary, the first day after we arrived, we had to be up before the crack of dawn to start training people in puppet making, puppetry and drama/mine. We have also been to a number of schools, some Christian and some even non Christian to run their assemblies from elementary to high school aged children presenting our program before 300 to 600 children in the assemblies. We also did a kids club in a neighborhood in which 170 - 200 kids and adults attended. At this meeting we had the privilege of seeing a young, single mother come to Christ. To God be the Glory!
Upon arriving in Guatemala, we received a warm welcome with "Welcome to Guatemala" signs and decorations. The people here have very thankful hearts that we have come so far to speak with them. Their hearts are very much open to the message of the Gospel; not hardened which brings great joy to us. All of this is very much different from our ministry in California last summer.
Close to the mission, there are two volcanoes; one of which is active. As I looked around at all these people, I thought to myself that the moment this volcano erupts, most people in this area will perish and why on earth do they live so close to a volcano? God soon spoke to my heart and made me think that we all could perish in an instant and as Christian we should have eyes and look at everyone in this way in order to think and act upon the urgency of sharing the greatest message. Therefore, being here in Guatemala to share this message of the Gospel is all the more precious.
