The Wilsons Adventure to Guatemala

Well we made it through our first official day!.. It was great. We received our syllabus, and saw the work that will be required of us during the next month. It is a very demanding workload. It will take a few days to get in the mindset of writing papers again and reports of 15 pages! Today we spent the majority of the day working on personality assessments, and found out that many of us have more than one person needs to have. It was fun and eye opening at the same time, and will help us to better understand how to work with our future co laborers on the field. As some of you know our vehicle broke down literally as we pulled into the parking lot. What a blessing, it could have been a lot worse. We were able to locate a Christian who owns a garage here and he replaced the alternator. Nothing major, just not expected, and Ford I just recently found out thinks their alternators are worth a pretty penny. Just being able to type this post is another blessing. It is really necessary to have a good computer here, and be able to access the wireless network. My laptop had so many problems, and the internal wireless card was not able to connect to the network. God provided a now great friend in the couple that are living downstairs. He is our resident Mark Sohmer. We have chatted over keyboards, coffee and brownies during our computer restoration project. We are looking forward to tomorrow and catching up with our mission director and friend Pat Ragan & his family as they make the 5 hour drive from Chattanooga to spend tomorrow night with us. We will keep you posted. If your reading this I encourage you to take a moment to reflect how great of God we serve, and all He has done for us! It really defines who we are. Adios!
