As I type this, there are exactly
5 weeks until my team and I leave Guatemala for reentry in Montana
with the rest of our class. How did this happen so quickly? I swear
it was January yesterday! These last 8 months have been amazing and
God has been so good and faithful in showing me what a mess my life
was without Him and the amazing plans that He has for me and desires
for me to walk in.
So somehow, I completely spaced
out on writing an update for July- August, so this month's update
will be about mid-July – mid-September.
July and August were full of
missions trips. So busy. So good. Almost every week we had a new team
coming in from different places in the States. It has been amazing
getting to meet so many new people, hear what God is doing in their
lives, and share with them what the Lord has done in my life through
this year. With the missions teams, we did outreaches in markets and
parks, went to the hospital, threw huge, carnival type Kid's Clubs
(which the kids LOVED by the way), and went to the dump in Esquintla.
One of my team's new favorite outreaches that we just started doing a
few months ago is bring pancakes and eggs to Antigua's Central Park
and giving them away to the vendor's that work there. These
outreaches are full of fun times, huge smiles and fellowship.
So, most likely, the reason that I
forgot to write an update is because the second week of August, a
team of Potter's Field Sponsors came and that week was EXTREMELY busy
and amazing. God blessed me so much during that trip through the
people that I met. He also confirmed a calling in my heart that I had
started feeling but wasn't sure about.
In the midst of all the missions team,
we are still teaching at four schools a week and having between 1 and
3 Kid's Clubs a week at different locations. God is so good. He is so
faithful and He is still teaching me more about Himself every day.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
I am excited for what the Lord has to show me in the last few months
of this amazing journey.
By His Grace,
MaKayla
