My name is Ryann and I am in HueHue Guatemala with Buckner International doing mission work in the orphange in town. Today started with breakfast at nine and then from there we had a meeting and planned everything we are going to do for the next week and a half. While in our groups we planned Bible stories and crafts to do with our specific age groups. After the meeting we had lunch then headed straight over to the orphanage. At the orphanage the first thing some of us did was clean up the babies which included brushing teeth and washing hands. Then we began with playing games with all of the kids. I played hide and seek with a group of about ten kids. After about an hour of playing we sang some songs andthen divided into our age groups. This is where we began to get to know the kids on a deeper level, but we still have a lot to go. It was amazing to see how God allowed us to communicate even though we do not speak the same language. We left the orphanage around five and came back to the hotel to clean up and rest for a bit. After a tour of HueHue, we ate dinner at a typical Guatemalan resturaunt then came back to the hotel to watch the national championship game. We did have a short devotional where everyone shared thoughts about the day and how we felt about the rest of the week. It has been an awesome trip so far and i look forward to more wonderful moments. Roll Tide!!
