The mission team is presently in Antigua, GT

I will try to post pictures tomorrow since we got in town late today.  Yet, we are in Antigua, Guatemala, which is one of the most beautiful cities of the world.

(Those of you with spouses on the trip better be prepared to go with the next team as this is a place that you will WANT to spend time with a loved one.)

We stopped on the way for an hour in another world famous place, the market of Chichicastenago.  This was something new for the team to do and the condition of the stop was that the team had only one hour to shop and sightsee (including the church).  Only 2 team members were a few minutes late - and rumor has it that there are about 6 to 8 cameras that either videotaped or photographed the event.  Blake and Anna should be on the lookout for this within the next couple of weeks!

Our visit to Antigua is a continuation of the mission by witnessing and praying with those being cared for at the Hermano Pedro Hospital.  Additionally, we will visit many culturally and spiritually significant places during our brief stay here.

More tomorrow.
