From US to Guatemala

Sorry it has been awhile since we have written. In May we went home to visit parents, and church friends. Megan has visited her academic studies and came home a few weeks prior to her internship starting in DC for 2 months then on to San Francisco for 1 year. Jess was working and busy planning wedding details with Brooke. Neva’s parents are doing well per se, Bob needed a partial knee replacement and is doing well post-op. Marje continues to be feisty as usual.
When we returned to Guatemala, Megan came with us for approximately 10 days and we visited many of the ruins in Antigua. Neva and Megan acquired some ameba but, this was corrected with medication.
This past week was very busy as we had Spanish school in the afternoons and in the mornings I went on a local medical mission trip to 2 villages surrounding Antigua. Preston Crest Church, in Dallas Texas has an annual trip to Antigua the first week on July. Dr. Raul, Physician/Evangelist supported by Preston Crest Church ; Neva and I have grown fond on him and his wife. Dr Raul invited me to attend clinic with him when I was not in school. Four people were baptized and countless of contacts were made. Approximately 1,000 were seen and evaluated for medical, surgical and denital problems. It was very encouraging to see the combination of medicine and evangelism. This is the great example Christ used in the Bible.

Love Glenn & Neva
