Funniest
moment
Paul –
starting our team’s quote book ex. “I’m straddling a Guatemalan right now, but
it’s ok, he’s smiling.” – Paul (while in a shuttle with 18 people)
Katrina
– running down a scary road at night with Ash and Erwin on a chase for
tortillas; we knocked on several neighbour’s doors and got barked at by dogs
that turn into ware wolves at night
Time I saw God
move
Paul – When
I prophesied over Ben at Launch (check out “Prophesy, is it real?” for the
story)
Katrina
– Asking for personal change, trusting in Him for it to happen and
realizing that it did
Best thing I
ate
Paul –
papusas! Stuffed tortillas with cheese and mushrooms
Katrina
– Dominga’s cooking. She’s an incredible Guatemalan lady who cooked all of
our meals at Casa de Sion; always healthy, always organic, always plentiful
Who we’re
going to miss the most
Both – Erwin; an 8 year old boy who
became our little brother this month. We played Frisbee and soccer, chased
chickens, went for walks and loved him when others labeled him a delinquent
Something I
learned
Paul – How
to make a rock wall “gaviones” with my hands and limited tools
Katrina l- Fellowship is so important; I am inspired by people who have given up
their lives to share God’s love in unique ways
Craziest thing
we did
Both – Rode in the back of a pickup
truck with 5 people and our packs in the pouring rain over washed out roads to
arrive at our ministry site
Most
challenging moment
Paul – The
language barrier; not being able to fully express myself to the locals when I
had something to say
Katrina
– Being cold; the first 2 weeks I was freezing every night, but thanks to
more blankets and people’s prayers I found warmth
Most fun
moment
Both – Ziplining above Lake Attitlan,
seeing monkeys, crossing suspension bridges and cramming 8 people into a
tuc-tuc
Most rewarding
moment
Both – Finishing the “gaviones” (rock
wall) after a month of working on them every day
Most beautiful site
Both – Lake
Attitlan.
Katrina – When Becca and I took a boat from Panajachel to
San Pedro on a beautiful sunny Sunday morning
