We made it to Guatemala everyone!! It's such a blessing to be able to be in this beautiful country with the amazing team we have for a whole week to do God's work. The trip to Chicago went off without a hitch and the flight to Guatemala was good as well. We made it through customs with all our supplies, so we were all really excited and thanking God for that. Once we got to the orphanage we were able to meet the children and play with them for awhile before we had lunch. Now we have free time until six to just relax and have some down time until we have dinner with the elders of Los Olivos (which is the church we are partnering with here in Sumpango). Today has definitely been a blessing and a time to reflect on the awesome power of God. Driving to the orphanage we saw the most amazing mountains, and Ryan reminded us all of God's awesome power to do anything, even move mountains. Today is our first day in Guatemala and God has already been working to help us get this far. This is just the beginning of the amazing work He will be doing through us and for us during this week.
