Saying Goodbye
It’s Saturday morning and we are packed and ready to go! We’ll have breakfast, then say our goodbyes, and then head for the airport at 9:30 local time. Please pray for safety as we travel home.
Yesterday was just a continuation of a great week of ministry. The Lord was faithful in so many ways. We prayed it would stop raining and it did. Because of that, we were able to complete the work project we set out to complete and hold the sports portion of the VBS outside all week.
We prayed many would come to VBS, the women’s health classes, and our dental and eye care clinics. We were blown away with 100 ladies attending the women’s health classes and devotionals. They had a wonderful time and learned so many important health tips that will have a huge impact in their family’s lives. The line was out the door for both the dental clinics and eye clinics. What a blessing to see so many affected as they had cavities filled or were able to get a pair of glasses so they could read the Bible for the first time. And then there was VBS. The kids came from all over the village and we had such a great time with them and they with us.
We prayed that many seeds would be planted and that many would ask Jesus into their hearts. God was once again so faithful as He moved in hearts in all facets of the ministries. Many received Jesus and many were encouraged and challenged in their walk with the Lord.
So, the Lord was faithful as He always is. As we stepped out in faith and gave Jesus our “fishes and loaves” for Him to use as He wanted, He moved in the hearts of people and none of us will ever be the same. Praise be to God for all that He did and will continue to do here in Guatemala.
The team wishes to thank all of you who have prayed so earnestly for us. The Lord has heard and answered your prayers.
In Christ,
Pastor Matt
