Guatemala Team Blog: 'A Wonderful Experience'

The Guatemala team checked in again on their blog. This week the team has been serving at an orphanage. Here's an excerpt.

" It is the rainy season, and it usually rains in the afternoon.  So, in the afternoon we (the ladies) have craft time with the kids in the classrooms.  That has been a wonderful experience.  The kids have immediately attached themselves to us, and we have fallen in love with them.  There are quite a few special needs kids, and they are precious.  The crafts are a big hit, and we are also teaching them English (as requested by the lead teacher).  We have had interpreters, and through them we are able to incorporate the message of our wonderful Saviour to the kids.  The orphanage is run by a Christian group of women, so the kids are familiar with the gospel.  One of the teachers even commented on Phoebe's name as being from the Bible.  It has been a wonderful experience."
