We travelled down to Guatemala in June of this past year, and when we arrived at this orphanage, it was clear to all of us on the team that THIS was where God had been calling us.
Each of the leaders we met didn't just love children and didn't just work there because they needed a job, they each had a story -- a beautiful story -- of how God had called them to this place, and how they answered with obedience.
We looked around at this children and whether they were shy or outgoing, timid or strong-willed, they quickly snuggled down deep in our hearts, and the most exciting part of it all for me is how much I look forward to showing others the beauty that lies within these precious little ones.
For The Launch, we're working on making photo cards for everyone to take home, place on their fridge, and to pray daily for these children and the staff who have devoted themselves to their care and education. We're also in process of making a video to show during the service to let everyone see the faces of each of these little boys and girls.
In late April of 2013, we're planning a mission trip to go there. We'll walk the kids through a VBS and meet some of those in the neighboring community. Would you pray about joining us? I'm certain that God will bless your heart while you are there.
