We are safe and have not had to evacuate at this point. The airport is shut down and we have had black sand raining down on us covering everything. During devotions tonight we will pray for those families who lost loved ones today due to the volcano. I can hear the conversations we have had…
EnJOYing JOY!
A year ago we started believing God for a new van. Our old van was a blessing and it did so much for us for over 6 years. Not having air conditioning, music and even working seat belts in all the seats, we set our sights on what we wanted for the children and after…
The Playground sure has changed
As I sat at the playground and watched the kids play yesterday I was reminded of one of my first eye opening experiences of the differences of kids in the US and in Guatemala.
