After a month in language school we packed up yesterday and worked most of the night getting ready to leave for our town in the Zoque jungle. The drive out here revealed breathtaking mountain vistas at every turn. As we looked at God’s majesty being shouted by his creation, our hearts were turned in worship of the Lord!
This trip has been different from many others because our focus is on study and preparation for future opportunities. Because of this, we’re getting to spend a lot of time together as a team and one of my favorite parts about it has been the wonderful fellowship with our team. Today we certainly enjoyed some of that good fellowship as we reveled in the realization of WHO God is…how beautiful he is, how he loves us, and
how wonderful to know that we are his! Sweet, sweet thoughts.
When we arrived at the village, it was wonderful to see friends from last summer’s trip here. Just getting to know these people, who they are, what their daily lives are like, and what their needs are has been great. Tonight we learned about the cheesemaking process from the abuelito (“little grandfather”) who raises ten cows and makes cheese. Tomorrow morning we’re going to see the whole process from the very beginning. Starting with… the cow! I’m going to love this week!!
Rachel, for the team
