An Update from Mark and Sherri Schlax in Guatemala

Hey Everybody,

We wanted to send a quick update and a thank you to all of you. We have been here in Guatemala for almost 6 months. So hard to believe! We really love it! It has been a very busy few months and has gone by so fast.

We have so enjoyed working with all the teams that have come this summer. We have met so many amazing people and have learned so much. They accomplished so many projects here at the home. And spent many hours playing and caring for all the children here. They did many different activities with the children as well as sharing the gospel with them through skits, preaching, games and just caring and loving them. God has been so Good!! We have seen His hand at work over and over! Each of the teams is so different and made up of totally different people but each was very special in their own unique way. We do have to admit we are tired after 3 months of back to back teams even though we really enjoyed working with each of them. It was a little sad when the last team of the summer left.

We have also really enjoyed getting to know many of the staff and children here at Agua Viva. They are wonderful and have been so kind and patient with us as we are learning (and with our Spanish!). The children here are so sweet!!! They have definitely won our hearts very quickly!!!!

The time is coming soon when we will be going home for a few weeks! (August 24th) Our visas will run out soon so we have to leave the country for a short time. We will be home until the end of September. We are so excited to see our family and friends from home!!! We have missed everyone so much!!

Thank you!! We appreciate your prayers and care for us so much. You have all been great! You do not know how much you all mean to us!!!

In Him,

Mark & Sherri Schlax

P.S. Look forward to seeing some of you soon!!!
