Belize Days 6 & 7

Sunday, August 22, 2010
Reactions: 
This last couple of days have been full. On Thursday, we completed the steps on the outside of the church, and then spent part of the afternoon shopping and seeing more of Belize City.
Friday saw us at the Belize Zoo and visiting the ancient Mayan Ruins. The ruins impressed me personally more than I thought they would. It was a very hot day, and it took a lot out of us, but it was so worth it. We saw the place were sacrifices were made to their gods, and it was very disturbing and comforting at the same time. Disturbing because of the fact that many lives were lost for no good reason. Comforting because Jesus paid the price for us, once for all, and we simply need to trust in Him, and follow His will for our lives.
I also had the opportunity to drive the van for a couple of hours (and will do so again today). We got separated from the Pastor for a bit as we were dropping of his kids at Youth Night at the church, but we got everyone were they needed to be, and then arrived at the hotel safely, even with the big bug that joined us in the van.
It was a great day of experiencing more of the Belizian culture, and learning more about the people we have come to serve.
This morning at breakfast we met a Christian ex-pat who moved here from Maine, as well as a Pastor and his wife from Texas who are here to do some evangelistic services.
Later we did a bit more shopping, and I found out that I’m preaching at tomorrow mornings English service…..Pray !
God is at work, stay tuned.
