We're Here!

We made it to Guatemala!  The traveling went pretty smoothly.  We did sit on the plan two hours longer than expected, but the kids did wonderful!  The other missionaries on our team picked us up and we drove to Antigua.  We were all tired from the traveling, but were so glad to be here.  Elijah even said when we landed, "It feels like home!"  We all slept well, and are enjoying exploring the ground.  Seth has already played in the fountain, helped the guards open and close the gate, and caught some bugs. Asher and Elijah are exploring too and really like the dogs here. We are starting to be immersed with the culture and learning the ways here.  Today, we will be going to look at homes to rent and getting our cell phones.
 
Thank you for your prayers. We truly feel at peace here and excited about what's to come!
