GUATEMALA

Judy and I went to Guatemala with a group called Serving Him. We also did this same trip last year. As you know, Judy had surgery on Feb. 13 and I have been dealing with an angry sciatic nerve. We were anxious about our chances of making the trip, but God intended for us to go...thank you Lord. I didn't perform all that well, but Judy made everybody look weak with her super energy.

We were privileged to work with a wonderful, Godly team of Dentists, Doctors, and nurses, who pulled hundreds of bad teeth and performed 54 surgeries for the indigenous Mayan descendants. We also built stoves, latrines, and delivered about 400 food baskets to some very impoverished people. To top it all off, we saw several children and adults come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ!

Since her surgery, Judy has not experienced pain and has even gained seven pounds! We want to thank all of you for your continued prayers. Please also pray for our good friend, Jan Richardson, who was in a horrendous auto accident a couple of weeks ago. They had to amputate her right foot yesterday. Many other badly broken bones will keep her in Baylor Hospital for the next month or so.

God is good...His love is everlasting. Come what may, He will always be by our side. What a wonderful God we serve.

Judy and Ronnie
