Hey everyone.

(Joy, Bri and Annie on top of the hill)
So my week has been fabulous! I am so energized to be on the field again, doing mi
ssions, living with people, learning a language… I wrote Leah and was explaining how I am so so happy and so so content. I wonder if this feeling is ¨the will of God¨ for me? Whatever the case may be, thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers! I am delighted to be so extravagantly supported by such spiritual giants. I love and respect you all and appreciate your thoughts.
We are doing ministry over the next couple of weeks in Aguilar. It is a little town up in the mountains with rivers and gorgeous rolling hills. The kids have already won my heart… I found myself tearing up as we left for our two days of debrief in Palenque. We will be heading back late tomorrow and I cannot wait to see the ninos again!! We spend our days swimming with them in a river and then do evening services. We have no translator and none of us speak Spanish so it is an endless frustration to be virtually incommunicato… that is a definite prayer request if you think of it!
Alright, well if you want more interesting narratives and pics check out any of my team members blogs (Ryan, Annie, Clinton or Brienna) or the other team we are paired with in Aguilar (Jon, Talia, Eric, BriEllyn, Ginger or Kari).
