We Are Here

We arrived safely yesterday and without any problems or delays.  Pete did great and went through customs without being quarantined or us having to pay any taxes (they told us he was too old - he's 7).  We had a very warm welcome from our friends here and our joy has returned.  It's so beautiful here and the weather is nice and cool. 
Today we are going to a celebration for one of the 12X12 houses build for an older couple.  We are excited about that.  Don't know what we will do the rest of the day but we have a lot of unpacking.  The belongings we shipped 2 weeks ago have arrived and will be delivered Tuesday so we can begin to get settled a little bit and the boys can resume school after a 2 month break - Yay!
We will update more later.  Thanks for all of your prayers!!!

    I was worried about him!

    Seth is ready to pack his bags! We are so excited for how God is going to use your incredible heart for the people in Guatemala.

  7. You have been in our prayers, here in NJ. Your obedience will bring you blessing beyond imagination. You have no idea what an inspiration your sharing did for Butch and myself. Let me know if you have any specific prayer needs (other and what God puts on my heart to pray for) and we will gladly lift them up to God.
