This is where i will be in just 3 days from now, Chichicastenango, Guatemala! I’m going with the James Fund (a Family Christian Stores ministry) and Pray America (the ministry in Guatemala) My team is going to be building 2 houses for widows while we are there, and helping complete an orphanage for girls rescued from the sex trade by International Justice Mission. I’m so excited to be a part of something IJM in doing! The work they have done all over the world is truly amazing and I feel so honored to be a part of something that will change so many lives!
Sometimes with all the stress of packing, completing school work, and flying (I HATE flying) I Lose sight of the reason I’m going in the first place; To spread God’s love by helping those in need. I forget God is so much bigger than I ever could imagine and everything is in his control, no amount of anxiety or stress can ever change that.
If you want to know more about IJM, Pray Amerca, or James Fund check out their website’s (on a list to the right ->) for more info on the amazing things they do and ways to get involved!
Thank you sweetie. Your pictures and comments are wonderful! I feel like I'm there with you and wishing I was. I'm so proud of you! Be safe! Love always, Mom
