Our Team - Love Guatemala Staff

I wanted to take a minute and brag about our awesome team we have here at Love Guatemala!  They have been working super hard this year and especially the last few months.  We have had a lot going on here at Love Guatemala.  Here is a picture of the majority of our team:

This picture was taken the evening of our Independence day celebration. Every year we have a celebration which includes cultural dances, dramas and the selection of our Miss Love Guatemala. This is a lot of work for our staff which they did very well. Check out some more pictures below.

 This was the selection of Miss Love Guatemala.  This is Cindy on the far right that won.  But they all did a great job.  We have seen how this selection is used to help this girls develop confidence and hope for their future.

 These are a few girls (Angela and Andrea) from the Art School and Literacy Program.

 Here are the Carpentry School representatives.

Jennifer and Ben in their typica clothing. Every dresses in the clothing of Guatemala.

This is Mr Matthew, Carlos Lopez father.  I found him praying at the front of the room before the activity began.  He is an amazing man.  He is 87 and still works every day in the field.  

Each month we have a dinner with our staff as well to celebrate together what God has been doing and celebrate birthdays.  Here are a few pictures from our last one this last Friday which we were able to celebrate with our team from Virginia.

 These are the four that had birthdays in September. Guicho, Katie, Patty and Jose who is Antonietta's (Cooking School Teacher) husband. We had plenty of cake for them!

 Please pray with me for our staff.  We have about 5 weeks left in the academic year and there is much to be done.  We have our graduation on October 19th. Thanks for all your prayers and support for our family and our team here!
