Everything is coming together for the Guatemala part of the trip!
Here is an Update!
I have begun my first round of Typhoid medication today, as Monica finishes up her last round! Yeah baby! Swallowing a live Virus people...doesn't get any better!! ;-) I will spare you any future details or reactions!
We will be staying at a bed and breakfast which is owned by one of the Nurses from the Orphanage! They are Christians, have a great price, frequently host short term missions teams, they feed us, and THEY SPEAK ENGLISH!! This is a huge blessing which we have been praying about!
We are also in touch with a missions organization called Porch de Salomon they build homes for the Mayan people, hold outreaches to the communities, and teach Bible studies to the youth! We are hoping to also be able to work with them on some building projects and outreaches while we are there!!
Thank you for keeping us in your prayers!
We will have limited internet access while we are there but will post as frequently as possible to the Facebook page as well as the blog!

Dear Friends,
I am asking you to pray for me during the next few months! There are many things that God is doing and allowing me to be apart of! I am very exctied as plans are coming together!
There is much work and travel coming up...stay posted to. I will post updates, prayer requests, photos, and stories from the journey.
Please join me in prayer for the upcoming trips as we plan and prepare.
Guatemala - July 11th-18th - the first time return for Monica to the town, area, and orphanages she grew up in. We will be showing Jesus to the Children there now. Handing out tracks where possible, playing soccer, and sharing our story as we go!
Mexico - July 18th-August 9th - Missions with Global Encounter. Administering first aid, dispensing antibiotics, treating whatever other medical needs are within the scope of the team’s resources, and providing teaching in dealing with basic medical problems and common health issues. Installing in-home clean water filtration systems to prevent further waterborne illnesses and possibly helping out with some kids’ programs along the way!
Sierra Leone, West Africa - September 23 - October 6th Ministering to the Wellington Orphanage and amputee camps around the wellington area. Small construction projects around the orphanage buildings. Training on teaching and decipling to the orphans to equip them to reach their country for Jesus!
Please Pray for:
+ The people we will be working with.
+ The teams as we prepare lessons and activites.
+ Safe and Healthy travel.
+ Open hearts and open doors.
+ Wisdom and strength for each team member.
Thank you for your prayer and support! Please contact me if you have questions or would like to be involved! I would love to hear from you!
All things through Christ who strengthen me!
Rose Finley
