Linda was honored by the International Mission Board of the Primitive Methodist. It was a complete surprise to her. She has served over 40 years here in Guatemala and the International board wanted to honor her for her faithful service. Jim, rector of SETECA, was able to keep it a surprise and as he read the commendation note to the whole field, Linda was looking around wondering who was being honored.
As she accepted the acknowledgment and the scholarship in her honor her comments were filled with gratefulness and then Linda said, "CAM made an exception when I joined the mission, they accepted me as a child". Everyone laughed. What a sense of humor.

Jenny, an mk herself and now missionary parent, perked up from the back row and said "And she was my dorm mom!"
Thank you Linda for your service and ministry here in Guatemala.
