Our Retreat at Panajachel


The five interns, Kendon, Wendy, (their son) Ian, Staci, Lee, and little Michelle went to Panajachel for three days for our retreat. This was a great time of souvenir shopping, kayaking, roasting marshmallows, playing frisbee (causing some unfortunate bee stings) and crocket, watching sunsets and sunrises, and hanging out. We talked about what to expect when we returned to the US and each of us had a time to talk about what God taught us, things we liked and disliked, and how we were going to apply what we had learned to our futures. It was such a great time. For a gag gift, Wendy gave the girls this purse that had a picture of Texas embroidered in it (proving that Texas is everywhere), and Mark these brightly colored slippers.


Words of the Day:
Cuanto cuesta? (quoo- ahn- toe quoo- eh-stah)- How much does it cost?
Eso es muy carro. (eh-soe es moowe cah- roe)- that is really expensive.
Lago (lah- go)- lake
