Mayor congratulates HANDS team…

Friday, February 1st, 2008

Last night we were honored by an invitation from the newly elected mayor.

We visited his office and we received an official Proclamation of Gratitude from the municipal government. Then we were treated to dinner at his home. This was extremely high honor in this community and it also is one of the amazing surprises that the Lord has blessed this school and school leadership with.  I have a signed proclamation that was presented to Worldwide Christian Schools that I will be taking back with me and sharing with you all when I return.

Thanks for Praying for us!

Guatemalan cook wins strength contest…

The cook at Colegio Juan Wesley in Guatemala

Just when we thought that our HANDS team knew how to work hard, one of the local cooks demonstrates how she can carry blocks up the stairs to to the third floor of this school building. Even though we tried, myself included, none of us were able to even come close to what this local worker could do.

Great photo from Guatemala!

Keep praying for this project and the leadership team at this school. The number of amazing surprises that the Lord had in store for this school and leadership just keep piling up! To God be the glory! Take a look at the final photos from the DeMotte Team, www.eduguate.com/blog
