We just returned from the mountains in Quiche. It was a wonderful time of ministry to the children and their families. It was special to able to take our kids with us this time to experience a different way of life on the mountains in Quiche and to enjoy making new friends. Brinson and I enjoyed seeing some of the ministry leaders that we met last year and meeting even more It was great having the NCC team with us this week, and wonderful to have friends around during this transition time for our children. The NCC Mission team did a great job using their gifts to share the love of God to each person they came in contact with everyday. Brinson and I helped the team and began learning how to lead other mission teams in the future. On one visit up in the mountains, we prayed for the mother below who had just suffered a stroke. She has been told by an uncle that she would die in 15 days. He was not a doctor, but was speaking from some type of Mayan tradition. We were able to share with her the love of God and his healing power. We encouraged her to put her faith in God and not in man. She received our encouragement and she rededicated her life to the Lord as we prayed together. It was fun (and frustrating at times) trying to use what Spanish we know. We can definitely see the importance of us being in Spanish language school soon and learning it fast!
Thank you for your continued prayers!
Praise God!
