Service Day #4
Today we traveled over 2 hours to Escuintla and presented a small VBS. The service team made a bench and we did and we helped the teens learn some English. We stopped at the beach after our ministry. In Escuintla the temperature was more than 10 degrees warmer. The church had much love to offer and really enjoyed our team's stay. We are planning to make this a place next year to share the gospel again.

Service Day #1
It was a busy day. The maintenance team went to a local “Home Depot” and bought 2 sinks for the school. The sinks were made out of concrete and weighed nearly 1,000 pounds each. The plan was to carry the sinks to the 2nd and 3rd floors of the school. As crazy as that sounded, we were able to get enough help to do it.
The team then started work on cutting wood to make benches.
The childrens team stayed at the school and shared a Bible story with 6 classrooms. We learned the students alternate which days they come to school. Only half the class was there today, so we will come back tomorrow to visit the second half.
Our service day ended early, as we played baseball with the teens that Davis leads. We took an early lead, but in the end the teens got the best of us. They enjoy playing baseball and it was fun to build some relationships.
The Mime joined us at the hotel along with the baseball team for some hot dogs and games. The teams got a chance to spend more time having fun and spent time socializing.
The mime team performed their full skit. It was a moving performance and one that is used to share the gospel. The mime team performed earlier in the day and they had 30 teens accept Christ at a school near Guatemala City.
It was a full day and we look forward to building more relationships and sharing the gospel with the children and teens.
