Hi everybody,
Greeted by long pine needles covering the ground of the SI base this evening (pine needles covering the ground is a Guatemalan tradition to mark celebrations), we were welcomed into a fun, festive Guatemalan culture night. We enjoyed a wonderful festive meal, some cultural education, and fun Guatemalan games.
This is a quick blog entry to let you know we all arrived with no problems traveling or losing any luggage. We are into our third day in "The Land of Eternal Spring" and the students have been out serving with the Students International (SI) missionaries at their different ministry sites. The 30 LIFT students will be doing life with the 11 Global Bridge semester students that are here with SI - they are fast becoming friends - we had a great worship time starting off the morning together. Things are going very well!
Everyone is loving their home stay experiences and diving into this beautiful culture. More updates will be coming soon via this blog and pictures will be posted on the LIFT Discipleship Program Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/liftdiscipleshipprogram
