Happy Anniversary~~Mission Trip

  Please pray for James and our oldest daughter, Ashley, as they leave on Tuesday for Guatemala for 10 days.  The first 3 days, they will be staying with our friends.  If you remember, I mentioned back in the winter that Ashley's closest friend (next to her sister)moved back there with her family.  This is the family, and they will spend 3 days hanging out and sightseeing.  On Friday afternoon the rest of the mission team will join them.  They will spend one night in Antigua, then move up north to the Mocuhan and Purula area again.  James will be doing building projects, and Ashley is the co-coordinator for the VBS for 250+ village children.  She was able to write 1/2 of the lesson this year, plus coordinate the craft projects, in charge of collections and ordering items for their goody bags, etc.  If the timing works out, she will also be able to spend one day assisting at the women's conference this year.  She and 2 other girls will be sharing one of their praise dance numbers again this year to Shout to the Lord.  (It's amazingly difficult to dance in Spanish!  LOL.  They're used to the English words, and they really have to concentrate on their movements when the words are different.)  The team will also be attending and, I believe, preaching at several services.  Please pray for their safety, God's blessings, the Guatemalan people would be reached and encouraged, good health, and that most of all, God would be glorified. 
Today, James and I celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary.
