During April David helped our IMB teammates
host a volunteer team from Denver Baptist Church in North Carolina.
They held a health fair in the Departments of Quetzaltenango and
Huehuetenango.
Thank you for praying for this team! In addition to offering medical
assistance, the team shared the gospel with everyone who came.
Continue to pray specifically for the hearts of the people in the
Department of Huehuetenango. While there, David and Mark were able to
gather more information on the Kanjobal people group. This is part of
the Digital Engagement initiative they are doing. The information they
gathered will help us determine future visits and ministry there.
Team Meeting
IMB Team Guatemala
We
made a visit to Quetzaltenango to have a quarterly meeting with our IMB
Guatemala team. We meet every quarter to set goals and plans for the
next three months.
Continue to pray for each family on our Guatemala team- us, the Stones,
the Robertsons, our journeyman Lauren, and the English family, who are
in language school in Mexico. We are all uniquely gifted, and it is
cool to see how God is using each of us to advance the gospel here.
Pray for wisdom for us as we serve as Team Leaders for this team. Pray
also for us as we oversee five more teams just like it in Mexico. It's a
big job, but God is faithfully equipping us to do it.
Celebrating
We had two fun celebrations in April. Ben turned twelve, and we had our 28th wedding anniversary.
Coming up later this month, we will celebrate Cruz turning fourteen.
Both of our boys are growing up fast. Pray for them to continue to grow
in the Lord. Pray for us as we disciple them and teach them how to be
men of God.
Did you know?
In
addition to Spanish, there are many different languages spoken
throughout Guatemala. During our time on the mission field we have
served among the Q'eqchi' people in Alta Verapaz and Peten (#16), the
Ch'orti' people in Chiquimula (#4), and are currently serving among the
Kaqchikel (#9).
