I’m Leaving for Guatemala on Monday!
Welp, the time is fast approaching. We finished up our lectures last week, this week we are working on dramas we will be presenting. We've got our class shirts printed and our plane tickets bought. Here's a rundown of our scheduled travel plans.
On Monday December 7th, at 5:30pm we leave the San Jose Airport for Panama City, Panama. We will have a layover til Tuesday at 10am. At this point we'll be heading for Guatemala City, Guatemala. Once we arrive there we will be heading to the Guatemala City YWAM base for the evening. Early morning December 9th, we will take a 5 hour bus ride up to Huehuetenango, Guatemala. Huehuetenango is in Northern Guatemala, near Chiapas, Mexico. In Huehuetenango, the plan is to work with local churches and a family living in Guatemala, evangelizing and distributing food and bibles to families in the area.
We will stay in Huehuetenango until approximately January 13th, at which time we'll be heading back to the Guatemala City YWAM base. On January 27th, we will leave Guatemala to return to Costa Rica. Our class graduation will be on the 29th of January.
I've learned that I'm still due roughly $400 for outreach phase. Overall I would consider this number not bad at all and very attainable, which of course I'm trusting in. Any support you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers, it really means a lot. I've included 3 photos. The first is our DTS team photo, second is a night time photo shot from our base and third is a toucan we saw on the way when we headed up North.
Take Care!
