Here
is the continuing story of our mission trip to Guatemala. . .
Sunday (8/4/2013)
This past Sunday, we had the report-back
service at our church for the Guatemala mission trip. Also reporting back was a
college student from our church who just returned from interning in England for
the summer.
Doing a report-back is a big challenge for
me. I could literally talk for hours about a trip. Boiling down an entire week
of ministry into a one- or two-minute highlight is so hard!

I think one thing in common that we all
talked about was the sense of family and true community in the Guatemalan
church. In most American churches, people only see each other on Sundays. They
really don’t do anything together during the week days. In the Guatemalan
churches we visited, the believers truly did life together. The depth of their
relationships is encouraging and inspiring!
The relationships between the members of our
team really grew during the trip as well. We hope to have a team get-together
later this summer for some Guatemalan food, games, and photos from the trip.
And it sounds like the missionaries we served will be coming to Texas in
October! We’re all thrilled about that! So stay tuned for potentially more
Guatemala-related posts in the future. J
