Central America Revisited – Day One

Today started at 3:20 and it began in a manner consistent with the rest of my week. When I opened my carry on bag to get my shaving kit, the 3oz. bottle of shampoo only had 1oz. remaining and the rest was in my shaving kit and in my suitcase. But the good news was that once I cleaned everything up, the rest of the day went extremely well. Everyone on the team arrived in Guatemala without incident, we had good conversations about ministry, the difficulties confronting our church, and a lot of laughter. The only down side is that water has been cut off throughout the city while they clean pipes. I do hope we get to take showers before we climb into a mini-bus and drive to Quetzaltenango. I am a little too tired tonight to do a lot of writing, but hopefully tomorrow I will have more energy. The only question is whether I will have the ability to upload the blog, given that I will have to go to a public location to do so. Tomorrow we will have breakfast around 8:00 and then get on the road again. We had a brief thunderstorm and I am hoping that it continues throughout the night to enhance my sleep. God has definitely been good and I am looking forward to all that I can learn from this team, the Guatemalan people and the people of El Salvador.
