Guatemala: Day 2
It's a beautiful day here in Guatemala! The sun is shining and the temperature is pleasant. We had a lovely desayuno (breakfast) consisting of huevos (eggs), pan (bread), cafe (coffee), and plantanos (plantains). Muy delicioso! We will be heading out to check out the bridges that have been built in past years to make sure they are holding up, literally, and then we're off to La Florida to start working! We are all doing great and send out our love to our friends and family back home. Also, please note that because we are heading out to La Florida from Clinica Ezell, you may not hear from us for quite some time - but no news is good news!
In Him,
Rachel Ogar

MISSION LAZARUS UPDATE Wednesday May 7, 2008
After splitting with the Predisan team, Chad asked who wanted to drive to Mission Lazarus. Dr. Gregory more than willingly jumped at the chance to drive the SUV, although within a few miles of the airport, it promptly broke down on him. We replaced the vehicle after an hour of waiting and commenced our trip. Dr. Gregory and Dr. Gilliam can now be considered officially initiated according to Honduran standards. We all were quite happy to safely arrive at the ranch. The ranch itself is very nice and being on a mountain, we have a fantastic breeze. Good luck in the blazing sun, Guatemala team! We slept in cabins (on beds with blankets and pillows) and took hot showers before retiring last night. We awoke much earlier than we expected and had a terrific breakfast of french toast in a shelter overlooking the property. What a sight! It is really spectacular. Today we are familiarizing ourselves with the ranch and we will really dig in tomorrow with the erection of the radio towers and computer lab. Currently, we are blogging from San Marcos and hope to update our conditions as often as possible. We will continually pray for the other teams and look forward to reuniting with the Predisan group and Mr. Pettit (that´s another story) on Saturday.
Much love and many blessings
Kelsey and Mrs. Pettit
