Jesse is Number 4 out of 11 children.
His mom and I attended Moody Bible Institute together back in the 70's. Over the past 30+ years, we would run into Jesse's family either in their beach home in Florida, cabin in Wisconsin, Founder's Week and Moody Alumni Reunions in Chicago.
Back in the summer, Jesse came to Guatemala for a 3 month visit to do various things, such as reflect, study the Word, study Spanish and learn the culture. When he arrived, we introduced him to several dear friends in Antigua. We loaned him a cell phone that had recently been donated to us. (Thanks Richmonds!). We didn't see much of him during his 3 month stay.
Just a couple of days before Jesse returned home, we hosted him in our home. He was able to help Glenn set up 2 computer monitors down in his office. We showed him different ministries here in Guatemala, such as Casita Benjamín, SETECA, TGN and even gave him a "birds eye view" of the city dump.
And we served him our traditional Bolivian Monday night dinner - Beans and Rice!
