Guatemala, vengo!
Tonight, I am boarding a plane bound for Guatemala, and staying for TWO WEEKS! SO
excited! Back in March, I joined a special choir and have been trained
to sing 9 hymns of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in
the Kekchi language (a Mayan dialect spoken only in parts of Guatemala
and parts of Belize). We are introducing the first ever hymnbook in
their own language. I am totally thrilled to be returning to the land
where I served an 18 month mission at the age of 21. So, 12 years ago, I
met this wonderful people, and fell in love. I will not be performing
in any of the areas I lived in, but have hopes and plans to meet up in
the capital with a few friends from so long ago. I will give an update
upon my return. You know, eventually. :) If you are the praying kind,
please keep in mind the sweet husband and 5 munchkins I am leaving
behind. Friends and family have so graciously volunteered to take care
of the kids while Anthony goes to work each day. I know I will miss
them like crazy! Well, wish me luck!
