Don't Stop Belizing

We finally arrived in Belize. Yeah Pappa!

Our time in Mexico was a lot of fun. I learned a lot about myself. Living in a community of people brings out the best and worst of me. Get lower and go slower, is what I keep on hearing from my days at harvest school.

We arrived in Corozal, Belize on wednesday the 19th. We found an amazing rv park right next to the beach. It was closed due to maintenance issues but we found favor with the owner and he gave us a discount.

During our 4 day in corozal we went to the downtown to minister to the people who were staying there. We prayed for them, loved them, bought them some food and spent time with them. One gentlemen, Godfrey, was not doing well when we first met him. He was drunk and on drugs. A few of my teammates, Taylor, Brent and Melissa ministered to him the first day. The group basically adopted this man. He took us to the hospital to minister and to a village they call "Paradise" to go house to house loving on people, praying for them, and telling them about Jesus. The Holy Spirit put it on all of our hearts to take this man with us as we travel through Belize. We all felt compelled by love to take him and love on him more and get him out of an ugly enviroment for a time. He has been a great blessing for us all.

We left Corozal and went about 4 hours south to Dangriga, Belize another coastal town. Come on God!! Love the beach! Godfrey, during our travel, told us he wanted to be baptized. We baptized him and another man, Kareem, who was trying to sell us things, in the Carribean Ocean. I love the spontaneity of God.

Today, the 24th, we went to get permission from the mayor to have an evangelistic event in the downtown. We are also going to do to some street evangelism.

Love you all and I appreciate your responses. Sorry, I haven't responded to everyone.
