Day #2

This morning we went to church at Open Door Believers Chapel. This is the first time I’ve ever been to Belize, and going to their church was such a great experience. I thought their worship was awesome and it was my favorite part! Everyone was there was very friendly and welcoming and I loved getting to talk to everyone! In the afternoon, we went to see the Mayan Ruins. It was very fun and beautiful, even though climbing all the stairs got a little tiring! Overall, today was a great day!

I have to say, it sure was nice waking up to the sun and warm weather! We started our day going to church. As always, we were welcomed with open arms and hugs. Caleb, Julie, and Madi lead us off in worship followed by their praise band. It was nice to worship with our brothers and sisters in Christ. During the church service, our remaining team members, Ryan, Anthony, and Erin joined us. We were so excited to see them! After lunch we drove an hour to the Mayan Ruins where were learned about the culture and were able to hike up some pretty steep and tall steps to get to the tops of some. All in all, it was a very good day, being reunited with our friends from Open Door Believers church as well as the rest of our team members. We are all excited and looking forward to beginning our day at the school and our work projects in the morning. Thank you all so much for the prayers. It’s definitely been difficult but we are feeling the power of your prayers, so please keep them coming!
