An update (finally!)

First of all, I want to than you all so much for supporting me, and I want to apologize for not posting updates at all! So, on the first day I was in Guatemala, we did a work project for an orphanage where we dug a trench sort of thing and hauled dirt.

The rest of the days we did our drama as well as evangelism and prayer for people around the area where we did the drama. Often amazing things happened because of our prayer! Blind, crippled, and sick people were healed! It was awesome! A lot of people got saved too: roughly 2000!


The picture below is a picture of me, my two friends Bekah and Caitlyn, with a 15 year old girl named Ashton who we were able to lead to Christ through a translator. Ashton does not like "church" and it took a while for her to realize that Jesus was more about a relationship than a religion. When she accepted Christ and we gave her a Bible, she just started crying and then she had to leave. God did awesome things in Guatemala, and I am so psyched that I got to be apart of this!

Let it begin!

I am finally leaving PA tomorrow (Friday, June 25)! I AM SO EXCITED! I will be staying with my nana this weekend, and then I will be off to training in Miami! Please pray that everything will go smoothly with flight stuff and pray that I will get to know my team-mates and room-mates quickly. I will be posting updates more often beginning on June 28th, so check back soon!
