Lost and Found

Hi Everyone,

Today was a day of driving and sweating. It was HOT! We went to visit Roberto's Grandparents in Santa Lucia. It was a nice visit. His Grandfather is 86 and grandmother 76. They have been together for 64 nyears, they have 14 children, 60 grandchildren and 40 great grandchildren, WOW! It is always fun to listen to their stories.

I wanted to tell you about a miracle that happened on Saturday. It might sound small to you but if you only knew how things are here you would understand the greatness of this happening. We had gone to a super market to get some stuff we needed and when we were done shopping we decided to get some ice cream. Well, when I went to pay for the ice cream I realized my wallet wasn't there. I kid you not my heart was racing. I knew that there was no way (Other than God) that we would find that wallet. People here just don't usually feel led to do the right thing:) To make matters worse I had EVERYTHING in that wallet, which I usually don't carry around everything but we hadn't really been "home" enough for me to go through it and only take out what we needed. So there was over $1000 cash plus all of our cards in it. Becca ran to the bathroom to look, I went to check the grocery bags and ask eveyrone who was with us if anyone had seen it. As I ran over to the cashier we had checked out at an elderly couple came up to me and asked if I was looking for my wallet. I asked them if they had found it and they said yes, they had turned it in to Customer Service. So we ran there and it was there with everything in it!!!! This is not a small miracle in Guatemala. I know that God was watching out for us. The couple started talking to us and told us that they are pastors and that God has told them that the wallet belonged to a sister in Christ and to take it to Customer Service. They started talking to Becca (I translated). The man said to her that she was here for training and that God was preparing her to take the Gosple all over the world. And he quoted Matthew 28:19 (our ministry name!). We talked for a little while and thanked them again (and gave them a reward) and then left. I can not explain the feeling of peace I felt, I think it hit me that God is watching out for us in more ways that we can even imagine. It was such a blessing. Of course I will be more careful and I take full responsability for not taking care of stuff but I am greatful to my Father for His grace and mercy! It means a lot of us to know we are covered in prayer, thank you all for your prayers! We have more pictures but have to find a computer to use to download them. Soon! Thanks again and God Bless!
