Nineteen days! Wow, it feels like just yesterday I started my planning to go down, it has come so fast and yet has been so long awaited. My goodness! So my flight leaves here on March 2nd and bounces around a bunch throughout N.America till it finally lands in Guatemala on March 3rd (yup, one whole day of flying to get me there.) My last layover is in Miami and that is where I will meet my first team. When our plane lands in Guatemala our vans will be there to pick us up and we will drive to Antigua where we will spend the weekend doing "touristy" stuff like shopping and zip-lining. Monday morning we will load up back on the vans and head for the center. This is where my real excitement lies! So March 5th I get to see my babies!! At the end of the day the rest of the team will head back to Antigua but I will be setting my self up in my new home away from home for the next 6 weeks.
This is such a blessing to me to be able to do this, I can't believe I have gotten the opportunity to go back again and serve these children and workers in this lovely country. I have many people to thank for helping my make this happen, first my family, who have been such great supports to me helping in whatever way they could the whole way. Next the wonderful friends who have contributed financially to aid in all my expenses. And finally I feel like I have to thank Florida Baptist Children's home who have invited me back time and time again and allowed me to grow beside them both in maturity and faith.
