New week, great team, and lots of fun!

Hello parents! We are all doing well. I hope that you have been able to see pictures on both Facebook and the SI Guatemala page! I have been blessed by your kids, and their willing hearts to serve.
We went zip-lining on Saturday, and the kids tested their fear of heights and saw the beautiful scenery provided at the hill overlooking Antigua. The ropes course was called Circo del Aire, with 13 different stops along the way. The last distance was the longest, and the students had the option of going traditional zip line position, or "Superman" style, as if they were laying on their stomach with their arms extended out. There were a few of those, the daring ones. I can't talk, I didn't even do the zip line, haha. It looked like fun, just climbing that ladder gave me the chills as I watched all my students climb it! Yikes!
After the kids all enjoyed themselves on the 2 hour or so zip line, we ate lunch in San Lucas, on our way back to Magdalena. We ate at McDonalds! Here McDonalds is quite nice, in difference to the states. After that, we returned to Magdalena. We had a few hours of free time, and then ate dinner in the Community Center.
On Sunday, we attended church at Pastor Mario's. Church here is long. We heard the Sunday school kids come up to sing, and share. We three leaders gave a welcome from our home church or school, and our 3 teams went forward to sing 2 songs to them. We sang Abre mis ojos, oh Cristo, and 10,000 reasons. After that, we heard a sermon by Pastor Mario as he spoke on the book of Daniel. Sra. B translated. After lunch, we all went to Antigua for the afternoon, and ate lunch at Pollo Campero, a KFC - like chicken place here. Afterwards, we all went to the market and bought a free things. :). We ate dinner at Luna de Miel and Fernando and Marianela joined us! They both look great!

We are ready for a new week at ministry sites and look forward to how a God is moving the team! Prayers are appreciated for us all here!
