On to Spanish Lookout

Greetings again friends... We had a productive day in Belize City. The task of the day was to get some of the legistical things in order and prepare for a meeting with the Belizean board of directors (shown here - starting at the left and going around the circle is Henry Brown, Bedson Ornes, Fernando Magana, Alexander Perez and Walter Thiessen). It was a real encouragement to hear them speak of their passions and ministry. It's clear the Lord is raising up leaders to make a significant difference here in Belize.

One of the great blessings was that most of these men had not met before the day began but there was a clear unity despite the diversity of the group. As they shared common concerns for the country and passions for ministry it was not hard to catch their enthusiasm.

After the meeting we drove out to Spanish Lookout to reconnect with some leaders there and speak to the youth (that's tonight). The trip brought a battle with my Salbutes to a close (they tasted good but I knew I probably shouldn't have eaten them). It seems that I got a touch of food poisioning along the way but found the system reset and I'm feeling much better. Actually I feel real good... I think I could take on the world... And that's what I shall do!!!
