Read Luke 8 the parable of the Sower... Very appropriate for today.
Last night we arrived in Antigua, the former Capitol of Guatemala.
We stayed in Nury's beautiful house, part of which was designed especially to house people on mission trips. What a treat it was. What a wonderful host. She has a generous and serving heart.
We awoke to the incredible smell of brewing coffee and a sight to behold: an active volcano. We even heard it rumble a few times. Nury says, "Don't worry about the sound. It's when you don't hear it, you should worry."
We started our day by hiking, breakfast on the patio, then the the church ladies came to sell their homemade wares, then on to Antigua for a day of seeing the historical old city, touring a jade factory and shopping. It was a memorable day with friends that we felt we had known for years.
We laughed, reflected on the previous days we had together, and ate a wonderful meal.
Below are some pictures. Right now I can't fill in the details of what we saw and where we went, but I hope you can get a feel for the beautiful day we had.
And to end the day, a time of devotions, and a chance to finally meet Nury's husband Arnold.
It was a wonderful way to end our mission trip.
