Maximum Mission

Dear Family and Friends,

We’ve had a great week with a team of 12 from Indiana and many Guatemalans who lent their hands in the service projects of planting one new church, repainting a large park, remodeling a smaller park, building a Sunday school classroom and a wall extension and painting the entire inside and outside of a church.
This is some of the playground equipment the team repainted and repaired. The kids were enjoying it as soon as the paint dried. This park is only a half-block from the church.

WOW! It was a lot of physical labor, but worth it all. The team also held two VBS children’s programs and showed the Jesus Film twice. Through it all more than 50 people made decisions to follow Christ.

Our friends, Julio and Juan. Julio led the construction at Villa Nueva and his brother, Juan will be taking his first pastoral position in two weeks. We're proud of them both.
We were amazed to find an Iowa State fan at Lake Amatitlan. OK, just because he doesn't know what his shirt says doesn't mean he's not a fan!

After this week, we are feeling a bit tired this weekend, and thankful for a little rest. We have a normal week of language school and studying ahead, and we’re ready to get back at it to complete the final book in the series. We will continue to take breaks now and then to continue our training for Costa Rica and that will slow us down a bit, but we’ve got enough time to get it all done. We’re thankful for our year of language study.

Friday was parent teacher conferences and only good news to report. Both kids have done well in this school and are dreading leaving CAG. But we remind them that good things await in Costa Rica too. They are excited that they will have more freedom to run and play as our new home is located on a seminary campus with lots of space.

All in all a great week! A special thanks to out LINKS churches that support and pray for us. Thanks to our Los Angeles friends! And to our new Indiana friends, Welcome Home!

God bless you this week.

The Webb Family
