Arrived Safely

All travel arrangements went smoothly and we arrived safely at the Oasis at around 4pm Saturday afternoon. It is good to be back and be greeted by the happy smiling faces of the girls here. After a quick orientation from our host - Carlos, we went into Antigua for a quick bite to eat at the Sky Cafe. We are now heading to bed to hopefully get a good nights sleep - although we can already hear the dogs and the roosters!

Getting ready to leave

Thank you for all the wonderful items that were donated - we filled 10 bags on Tuesday night with construction supplies, school supplies, toothbrushes and toothpaste, bedding, toys, shoes and clothes. These things will be a great blessing to the staff and girls at the Oasis.

We leave from New Hope Church at 4 am Saturday morning and Lord willing arrive safely in Guatemala City at around 2 pm on Saturday afternoon. We are excited to be reunited with our friends in Guatemala and look forward to seeing how God will use us again this year.

New Hope Church first sent a team in February 2004 - we have been every year since, except for 2007.
