The Guatemala team is back home in Maine and Utah! The trip went extremely well with 8 stoves being built (more than we expected) the additional classroom completed (again, with more done than the original planned), all the children in the program updated and 25 new children added in El Membrillal as well as in San Lucas, where a new school will be starting up in January.

 



Part of the team worked with the school children doing crafts, which was fun for all involved.




  




The sponsorship team went out to the homes of new children to gather information which includes measuring the children. This child will be attending the new school in San Lucas.

  The stoves are a big blessing for the families who receive them.  They have been cooking on open fires, sometimes inside their homes which causes many health problems.  The new stoves allow a better cooking area on top and have a stove pipe to ventilate the smoke.

 
 
The classroom was build next to the existing building and made out of materials so that when the school is able have a build it's own  land, it can be dismantled and rebuilt. 







Joel & Janna were able to perform 5 time: at a youth meeting on Friday, church on Sunday, 2 schools on Tues & Wed, and at another church Wed night. They were a blessing to all who heard them.






We are thankful for all God prepared for us and allowed us to accomplish.
Thank you for your prayers.
