We have a view of "Volcan Fuego", or fire volcano. Each night and each morning we are able to see lava spurt up from the volcano, providing some quality, and might we add, FREE entertainment! We have also been able to walk up the road and get different views of the mountains and volcanoes.
We discussed highs and lows of our first full day of clinic at our 2nd location--a village nearby the fire volcano. It is a church with a school attached to it, with the most amazing group of Mayan women who made the most incredible homemade Mayan meal, complete with homemade tortillas and tomatilla based soup and hot sauce. To make it even better, several team members were allowed to make tortillas with the women. Marnie was named honorary Mayan because of her mad tortilla making skills!
To close for this evening- the band Crowder says it so wonderfully "Come as You are", and you will be accepted, loved, healed.
Blessings, Your 2015 Guatemala Mission Team
