first 2 ministry days
day 1: we went to a boys orphanage and helped clean around the rooms and kitchens. i helped clean the little boys rooms and i felt so bad. there were cocroached EVERYWHERE! it was so sad. it was also very HOT in there rooms. we did get to play with the kids and they were so cute. that night during our service Suzie spoke about how to get the ultimate relationship with God. it was so powerful. then we had ¨club sweatsalot¨ were everyone had the option of going and dancing. it was SO much fun. Day 2: today we went to a small market in Antigua, Guatemala (same town as our hotel) we performed our drama once in the morning once after lunch. after the first performance i took our bubbles and played with the little boys in the village. they REALLY love bubbles. after lunch we performed again and there wernt as many people there. we did the performance and most people left rate after. i saw this young man (i think in his 20s) sitting alone. i wanted to talk to him but my espanol es muy mal, but then a translator asked if i wanted to talk to him. i went over and explained the drama and he accepted jesus into his heart. it was so amazing. i also gave him a copy of the spanish new testament and i really hope he grows strong in christ.
i love and miss ya´ll (1 of my room mates is from texas) hanna

drama drama drama.
for once in my life all the DRAMA is a good thing. Ive been here for 3 days (2 nights) we fly to Guatemala Tomorrow, and i have to be in the hotel lobby at 4 am! that's EARLY!! but I'm having so much fun. I'm a mime in the skit were doing "Spellbound: the Toy maker's son" (i think if you want to see it you can watch it on YouTube. rate this second I'm heading to Language training, and i know a lot more than i thought i did. I'm loving my room mates (Stephanie and Lacie) and my team (way to many to name...40 people including leaders.) i cannot wait to perform the drama. its 20 minutes long, and we had to learn it in 1 day. this morning we worked on perfecting it and we have more practice later. i love and miss everybody.
Love Hanna
