Well this is most likely my last post until I get home from Guatemala! (If that wasn't obvious from the title...). Yesterday and today were two more awesome days of drama ministry, and today was our very last. We performed the drama 3 times today!! And we were told that at one of the schools we had an audience of 800! Isn't that incredible!? And practically everyone raised their hand to receive salvation! Totally amazing!
I'm pretty tired, making me kind of glad we're done, but it's still so sad!!
At the beginning of the trip, the days seemed to go by so slowly, but now, it seems as if the whole thing just flew by! I really can't believe I've been gone for 12 whole days! Man! :)
One thing I thought was funny - yesterday and today, when we just had our time to play with the kids, I got out my face paint, and I was practically mobbed! The kids LOVED it! I can't even tell you how many hearts and smiley faces and cat faces (to look like my drama makeup) I painted! My hands were getting tired!
So, tomorrow we have a free day, and we won't be told any plans until tuck-ins tonight (when leaders come into our rooms), so I guess it's still kind of up in the air. On Sunday I fly out of Guatemala around 10 I believe, and arrive back in Miami somewhere around 2:30 because of the time change. Then I guess I'll just be hanging around the airport until I leave for home at 8:15!
I still can't believe that in 2 days I'll be home. It's going to be so different...but in a good way :)
Thank you everyone for your comments and support during the entire trip. It means a lot knowing I had lots of people at home thinking about me and praying for me.
This truly was life-changing, and I can't wait to share it with you guys!
Love,
Meg
Never the Same!
I'm heading off to Antigua, Guatemala this summer for two weeks with Never the Same Missions! Follow along with me as I strive to be the hands and feet of God and minister to His children in Guatemala! It'll be a life-changing experience!
"I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward - to Jesus. I'm off and running, and I'm not turning back!" ~ Philippians 3:12-14
