Angels sent to the LEAST!

This past week, the Lord sent me
2 angels to share the joy of loving Him in the elderly...
and we had a blast!


Helping serve at one of our feedings in Santiaguito...
and 5 bed deliveries to 8 elderly in need:






And to give them a true Guatemalan experience,
we hauled wood to one of my oldest elderly...
and they fell in love with him!

Such a gift to share the joy 
of loving and serving the elderly 
with generous and wiling hearts!


Friday we went to the market and bought:

-5 lbs of corn (to make tortillas)
-3 lbs of beans (white, red, and black)
-5 lbs of sugar
-1 liter of oil
-3 large soaps for washing laundry


Thank you to all those who donated
so that we could make these surprise visits
to elderly much forgotten and alone...
tears were definitely shed!




And a special thanks to Faith and Emily
for their missionary spirits and such huge, loving hearts...
what a gift to know that we are not alone
in His service to the poor!

Resurrection

Easter greetings from the LEAST!


Everyone waiting for the baker to finish baking their Holy Week treat...
Holy Week bread!






Liturgical celebrations of Holy Thursday &
Good Friday (Below)


Beautiful "alfombras" or carpets
made in the streets for the religious processions
taking place during Holy Week


A piña colada Easter treat for my cooks (their first EVER!)


So thankful for this season of new life & new beginnings...
for the miracles God has given to the LEAST...
for the people the Lord has placed in my life to support His work.

We are not alone- Jesus is Risen and His Spirit 
is at work all around us and through us.

May each of us continue to grow in confident trust of this truth!
Happy Easter...Feliz Pascua!
