We had an opportunity to talk with Lucas last night. He is still in Orlando receiving some training. To say that he is enjoying his trip is an understatement. I think his exact words were, "This Bible translation stuff is amazing!".
Tomorrow morning around 7 am he and his team of 7 people will travel from Orlando to Miami to Guatemala City. They should arrive there around 12:30 pm. They will be living with Christian families in the area before they travel back home on June 20th.
If you have been following the news at all, you may know that Guatemala has recently experienced a very serious tropical storm resulting in many deaths and other devastation, a volcanic eruption, and on going violence. We would ask for continued prayer for protection for his group and for spiritual growth; that God would give Lucas a clearer vision of His plan for him and that he can be a blessing to those he comes into contact with.
Our family has been humbled and amazed at the overwhelming outpouring of support for Lucas and his trip, not only financial but also in prayer. We are SO appreciative. Thank you!
Bob and Janice Hewitt
