Hey everyone back in the United States of America! I wanted to update, but its going to be a short one, because I am very wiped out from today, and we have a big big day in front of us tomorrow. So today, we all woke up around the same time as usual (6am) and had breakfast, and devotions. Then we went to 3 schools to witness. 2 of them were younger kids (ages 4-11) and thats where we all fell in love. The little boys loved the Boys on the team, and the little chicas, loved the girls on our team. We shared skits (Which skit? the itch skit! being my favorite lol) stories (noah, and david and goliath) and also gospel bracelets and lolli pops. THe kids just didnt want to leave us alone, and we didnt want to leave at all. If it were legal, Im sure some of us would've taken 1 or 2 or 4 or 11 home with us.. But thats not possibe =( yesterday night we took a decently long bus ride to an orphanage. We were all so blessed by these kids. Some feel asleep in laps, and it was just a great precious moment for a picture.
Tomorrow is Panamache (SP?) but its a 3 hour bus ride, then we have to hike down the mt because its a village in the mountians... I know that we all need rest, and a lot of us are still getting hurt and sick. We STILL need prayer.
Korinne-dislocated her finger (No french brading tomorrw =( )
Alli-Stomach hurts
Holly and katie-Blisters on feet from playing basketball
Mrs Shive- All in all for her sickness, and to feel better
Everyone else- Stomach problems, hurting body parts, headaches, and just attacks all over the place.
Please and thank you in advance for your prayers. Jesus is moving here in Guatemala, but we still have 2 and a half days left!
<3>

Hello everyone,
Nikki Callaway here. We're all praying for you up here in the US. Has the youth definitely decided to do worship this Sunday? If you could post to let me know that would be great. Hope you're all having a great time.

Psalm 78
A maskil of Asaph. [a]
1 O my people, hear my teaching;
listen to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in parables,
I will utter hidden things, things from of old-
3 what we have heard and known,
what our fathers have told us.
4 We will not hide them from their children;
we will tell the next generation
the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD,
his power, and the wonders he has done.
5 He decreed statutes for Jacob
and established the law in Israel,
which he commanded our forefathers
to teach their children,
6 so the next generation would know them,
even the children yet to be born,
and they in turn would tell their children.
7 Then they would put their trust in God
and would not forget his deeds
but would keep his commands.
8 They would not be like their forefathers—
a stubborn and rebellious generation,
whose hearts were not loyal to God,
whose spirits were not faithful to him.
72 And David shepherded them with integrity of heart;
with skillful hands he led them.
MANY PRAYERS AND MUCH LOVE IS SENT TO YOU VIA THE AIR WAYS OR GOD'S WAY. I see serving God cost something,that which is precious always does.No Regrets.All for God and not looking back.Guatemala will be a point of change and decision for all of you and for many to whom you have loved and connected with.BLESSED ARE YOU.The kingdom of God has been eternally affected. Keep up the good work and keep looking up. LOVE Suzanne

Hi, Korinne! My sweet, baby girl! I can't tell you how much I miss you. However...I could not be happier that you are loving Jesus with all of your heart and sharing that love with all of those beautiful people. I am also proud of how you have created this blog and committed to keeping us all informed of your trip. I have loved checking it out every night.
I am sorry that many of your are experiencing discomfort in your physical bodies. Korinne, can you please stop hurting yourself. :(
Praying for all of you!
May God continue to give you strength and perseverence and many wonderful moments of seeing HIM work in the lives of the Tri-County team and the many lives you are touching along the way. Bonding with Christians from around the world must be an amazing experience.
I love you all!
