As I type this, it is pouring rock and rain and ash from the skies in Guatemala. The volcano Pacaya had a major eruption today. Roads and schools are shut down. Traffic is at a stand still. Villages surrounding the volcano have been evacuated. The airport is closed.
As many of you know, I, along with a team of about 13 people are packed and ready to head out on Saturday morning. We have 24 HUGE suitcases packed full of items to take with us. When we were collecting these items we had no idea that so many people were about to lose everything that they had.
Please pray for the people that have lost their loved ones, their homes, and their belongings. Pray that God will stop the rain of fire so that we are able to fly in on Saturday. While a closed airport and volcano eruption were not in OUR plans 2 days before we leave, GOD has a bigger plan.

God provided a way for me to travel to Guatemala on a mission trip with my church on June 6th, 2009. I left not knowing what was in store for me. I came back in love with a country and its people.

Getting to Guatemala
I found my heart aching to be a part of my church's mission trip. I also found it breaking that I just wouldn't be able to afford it this year. God had other plans for me though, and paved a way for me to take part in His blessings. I have my passport on its way and I'm preparing for all the things He's going to show me on this trip. I'm excited to be serving the Lord in such an awesome way!
