Arturo is one gentleman we met at church today. He is originally from Guatemala. Arturo asked a couple of our team members what we were doing in Playa. We told him we were part of a mission team. He asked, you are missionaries? We said yes but short term missionaries. We will return to our country next week. His eyes lit up as he said, “I accepted Christ because some missionaries came to my country. He proceeded to tell us how some American missionaries told the story of Jesus and a lady who lived across the street from his friend came to know Christ. She was so changed that she gave the missionaries her house to have church in. Arturo asked his friend what was happening at the house and his friend told him about Jesus. His friends family member helped lead Arturo to Christ because the missionaries had led him. With great admiration Arturo said he had a special place in his heart for missionaries. We know we will not be here long this week but we hope our influence on this community will result in changed lives.

We had a great time worshipping with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Mike and Lynn shared testimonies today about how God has made their marriages stronger. Many were touched by their words.

Please pray for us tomorrow as we do another women’s event in the Mayan Zone. We have no idea how this will go or even if anyone will come. Please pray God will send who should be there. Please pray for our team as we continue to serve.
