On the way home

Hi Everyone,

Well, the last week wasn't filled with as many updates as I would have liked. It didn't seem the Mennonite village of Shipyard was what you would describe as "Techno"ville. In fact it was quite entertaining entering the "time warp" know as Shipyard. I've got a few moments at the computer here in Belize City just before I head off. I hope to arrive in Minneapolis late tonight where I will meet Terri along with the Grace Youth group.

Another great training time came to an end in San Phillipe yesterday. We had just over 30 participants (which was a real encouragement... we were somewhat expecting that we would have less than what had registered but we actually had a few extra come). This particular training time did have a couple curve balls that I think the team fielded real well. A few of the youth that attended this session had a very limited knowledge of the English language... something we didn't expect as the public schools are all in English. However, it didn't take much to shift gears a little to accommodate everyone.

I had the opportunity to preach in church in Blue Creek on Sunday which was a real blessing. Then it was back to Pete and Judy Krahn's place for kilkje (yum, yum). The hospitality we've received in the Mennonite communities has just been amazing.

I hope to update this blog with some photos and details later this week. I hope to be home late on Wednesday so feel free to come back and check the blog some time after then.
