Two weeks ago we were told that we were moving to Antigua, Guatemala unexpectedly. This was upsetting to a lot of people, including myself, because we wanted to finish our time we had with our ministries and people in Honduras. Because of our move we missed a lot of events at the bilingual school that we would go to. My team of seven had made friends with a lot of the kids there, especially the seniors who were finishing school and about to go out into the world. But we left on a school bus to Antigua that took from 4 p.m. on Saturday till twelve at midnight on Sunday stopping at a hotel at 3 a.m. for a few hours sleep. We lived in two hostels in Antigua, that were pretty nice. Antigua was a nice old town with a lot of young backpackers, so it was a tourist town. I recommend the crepe and Nutella place called Luna de Miel. We got to be there for their Day of the Dead parade. It was a restful week and we visited to an old folks home for three of the days. We stayed at Antigua for the week then moved again to Lake Atitlan (San Juan if you want to look it up on the map) which is so beautiful. And we'll be here for until the 18th or 19th. We live on the lake with an awesome view and instead of focusing on doing things we are taking time to grow ourselves and each other in the Lord. So we will hear from God what He wants us to do for the next 10 days in this place.
I will keep you more updated in the future. Oh and we had a team change one of the girls on our team was switched with a girl from another team.
Random thought: Would you rather have the ability to become invisible (not including your clothes) or shoot yogurt out of your finger tips (and it can be frozen yogurt)?

May your ears be ready to hear from Him and your heart be obedient to His orders.
What a wonderful opportunity for you and your team – you must be getting ready to do some amazing work on your next leg!
frozen yogurt… duh. then I can have the equivalent of ice cream anytime i want. also I could satisfy horris’ need for the cream and I can butter up any teacher I want by pretending to have gone out of my way to buy them cream… question: can I make it any flavor I want? or does it have to be vanilla or something? and is there some way I can create toppings? haha… hope you enjoy your time there!
