It's been two weeks since I arrived, I am floored at how quickly time passes. (Again). I was in time for Catonsville's 4th of July festival, and have spent most of my time visiting with family and friends and trying to get things in order here. I am also working for a few weeks beginning tomorrow as a substitute teacher at the Delrey School of UCP.
We are currently in the process of seeking people to help us write grants for Small Change 4 Big Change, and working on some fund-raising. There is much to do in the US before I head back to Guatemala in a month or two to get things rolling. God is opening doors and putting people in my life that are able to help us continue to set up the organization, which is confirmation to me that this is the Lord's work, not mine or Lisa or Matt's. He is leading this process and I am thrilled to be a part of it!
Vacation Bible School at the church this year will be using Small Change as their fundraising project, and the members of my church have once again been extremely supportive. I am blessed always.
There is nothing like home, having my own car, carpets and comfortable couches, being able to sit down with my parents, family and friends without having a break-up in the skype connection! I'm soaking up every moment of summer here because I know that soon I will be heading back again. I love every part of my life, both here and there.

"If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being in one spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others." Philippians 2:1-4
