San Lucas, Guatemala

We made it safe and sound to Guatemala. Our travels were nice and easy. Two whole hours to fly from Ft. Lauderdale to Guatemala City. We were welcomed with Fried Chicken (thought we had left the south) and a few bottles of wine. We were exhausted from being up since 4 am and not arriving to our home in Guatemala city until 5 pm (eastern). Drinking wine with only 3.5 hours of sleep the night prior brings on heavy eyelids and all of our minds were pretty fried by the time we fell asleep.
Felix and Laura(our hosts) are more generous and hospitable than we had imagined, making sure we are sleeping comfortably and eating well. We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast of tortillas, beans, avocados, eggs and onions. There was plenty of coffee as well; I had 5 cups and I have to admit that it was Foldgers, I surprised myself.
We will start our journey to San Miguel tomorrow, making a stop in Lake Atitlan for a swim. Our first week in San Miguel will include serving in a health clinic. Immediately following we will start assembling and training for the water purifier; equipping the locals with the knowledge which will sustain clean water for years to come.

until then, pray that we continue to find ways to serve people here and sacrifice our comfort for the good of the kingdom.
