Hola from Guatemala! 
We arrived safely this afternoon and spent the remainder of the day settling in, playing soccer and hanging out with the girls at The Oasis. The flight down took place without a hitch and even customs seemed easier this time as most of us passed through easily. The van ride up to San Lucas was a bit crazy as there were many more cars and 'chicken' buses on the roads during this time.

Tomorrow we have a planned orientation time as we have done in the past. We will be able to fellowship and get to know many of the new girls throughout the whole day, as well as get reacquainted with many of our old friends. We had the pleasure of meeting a few new staff members here, and briefly discussed the upcoming work.

Since we'll be gone most of the week working in Zapote, it's nice to have the day to spend time here with the girls.

Please continue to keep Josh Ma in your prayers. He had his second chemo treatment today but is struggling with on-going pain. They are exploring additional pain med options with a new doctor. Pray for wisdom and guidance for Josh, Susan and the doctors.
