A WOW Night!

We said goodbye to Team Maurice today.  Boy, did that week go by fast.  It was fun to see the group here.  Many memories were made, but more over, many changed lives occurred-Guatemalan AND American!  God was faithful and really impacted the group on the last night.  We got to the airport at 5:30am this morning and then ran errands and even did some dreaming for landscaping (Vicki was jealous of the selections of tropical plants AND the incredibly cheap prices).  I have a feeling the next time you come here, there will be some more color around the base.  I, Justin then proceeded to head back into Guate City to pick up Erin Van Oort, the new staffer at PBM.  It was fun connecting on the way home as she went to college with some former youth group members from California! 
   We are busy this weekend getting things ready for the next team, which comes in on Friday.  The family will be heading into Guatemala City with the Smiths for 2 days to create some wonderful memories and recharge before the last 3 teams come in.  It is hard to believe that the summer is half over already.  It has gone by fast and has been amazing....yet we are feeling it and are looking forward to a breather next week. 
   Back to Team Maurice.  There are and were MANY amazing stories to share.....PLEASE chat with them and hear it from their lips of the greatness of what God did in and through them!  I have a feeling that the next Maurice Team will have some of these faces in it!  Thank you for your prayers, they are needed and felt.
