The biggest reason I created this blog was to let all of you know about our time in Belize. Austin was asked to teach school a few weeks ago and we had to make a rather quick decision to go. We have tickets to fly out on the 15th of this month. God has been very good to us in helping us make the decision and giving us grace to know what to pack and what to do etc. My Uncle Lee so kindly let us keep our apartment that we are renting. This has lightened our load considerably as I don't have to pack all our earthly belongings and find a place to store things! We are so blessed to have supportive family to hold up our hands! We also are blessed to have a bus load going down soon after we leave that we can put a few things on. I don't have lots of news at the moment since we are not completely sure where we will be living. There is a small guest house they are considering right now for us. It is a few miles away so they would like to get us closer. We will be serving under AMA. The mission is on the outskirts of the Santa Marta village. I think that falls into the Cayo District of Belize. It is absolutely a feast for the eyes! I am looking forward to sharing pictures with you! The best way to describe the area is mountainous jungle... So beautiful. You will have to use your imagination for the humidity and heat!
I am so grateful to God for being with us and leading us to this point in our lives. We will continue leaning on him for grace to serve in this way and be a blessing to those we will live around. Our desire is to follow Him no matter how rough the pathway. I believe it is better to live in what we consider hardship if we are in God's will than to live an easy life with a guilty conscience and a selfish attitude. God gives us grace to handle what we are given. "I'll go with Him all the way!"
