God had a different agenda then they did for this trip, and it’s been an exciting and amazing adventure. Stephanie, had to leave Guatemala for a family emergency. Even without Stephanie, our connection to the community, the guys have been welcomed in the community and have been helped with translation by several friends whom Brian and his family knew when they lived in Antigua. Rolando, a pastor from the local church, has also been a constant companion. They have given out supplies, visited families, surveyed damage from the tropical storm and yesterday they bought supplies for two families to rebuild their houses, destroyed by the storm, and for 3 families to replace their roofs.
Please pray for these things: for their physical protection (they are roofing and out in the sun all day), for wisdom for what projects to take on in these last few days and for grace on both them and the community as they prepare to leave. The needs are great and I know if will be hard for them to leave. Tomorrow they will go on a prayer walk through the community. Check out the ministry site to learn more about Barrio La Cruz at pasoapasomissions.org. so you can pray with them.

travelers
