No sooner had we said "good-bye" to the team of 12 from GPBC, than we welcomed Maria (former Guatemala missionary and good friend) along with 2 early team members. Glenn went early Friday morning to take the GPBC folks to the airport, then 12 hours later, he was back there picking up Maria and crew. Maria knew exactly where she was staying, the downstairs guestroom. She has stayed there "many a night".
The next day, Glenn was out helping Maria do some purchasing for her team at Wal-Mart and at PriceSmart. Glenn also picked up an AA pilot, I mean Delta pilot :), that got here early, around noon, to join the work team. They also were able to drop off some suitcases and food at the Los Lagos Hostel where the rest of the team was to stay on Saturday night.
Glenn fired up the grill and we enjoyed Grilled Dr. Pepper Bar-B-Q Chicken for lunch. Yum!
We also invited several friends that Maria knew. We had a great lunch.
We hadn't planned on having a P-A-R-T-Y, but it was fun to go with the flow and encourage this work team as they are just starting out and and to hear how the Lord is directing them this week.
