Lynn's Reflections

The Guatemala experience was amazing in so many ways!

We interacted with amazing people who have a passion to help others and share Christ's love with their neighbors near and far. We traveled there to help them with missions and they are way ahead of us in their efforts to serve others and reach out!
We spent time in an amazing country and were awed by God's beautiful creation. Walking the hillsides on narrow paths against a canopy of blue sky and volcanoes was breathtaking (some of us even got short of breath).
We worked alongside people through an amazing organization named Vine and Branches that encourages and supports the communities in rural Guatemala with wisdom and respect.

Reflecting on all the blessings of the trip, I think my most treasured memory is that of standing for prayer with our brothers and sisters from Guatemala. Most of the time I didn't understand the words they were praying except for "Gracias Padre" (thank you Father), Their prayers and petitions seemed so sincere that I felt I was standing in the very presence of God.
Thank you to everyone who supported this project financially and with prayer! Please continue to pray for our brothers and sisters in Guatemala.
