Words from our college student along with us on this trip:
I am loving every second of this trip.
Being able to be servants of God and serve in Guatemala has already taught me so much about myself and the individuals here in this beautiful country.
Every day at our worksite, I take a second to admire the view and the creation of God. I feel like I get too caught up with my busy life at home and never take time to just be still and admire what God is doing for me and what He has created.
Despite the language barrier, everyone has been patient with us and communicated the best that they can with us.
We got to experience the town’s first defibrillator at a ceremony today. They don’t have the money for AED’s here, so this one was such an honor to them. Something that we have all over our hospitals, etc. is something that they don’t have access to.
It’s been such a learning experience for sure and I can’t wait for what the last couple of days bring!
