Happy Thanksgiving

We want to wish all of our family and friends a joyful Thanksgiving Day. We are so thankful to have family that supports us prayerfully, emotionally and financially. The hardest thing about missionary life isn't doing without things, it's doing without the company of our family during holidays. Here in Guatemala, we don't officially celebrate Thanksgiving Day. In fact, tomorrow we are having a staff meeting with our coworkers down at Clinica Ezell. But, our director, Carlos is preparing us a Turkey dinner in honor of our American tradition and we are thankful for having such thoughtful coworkers.

So, we hope everyone enjoys the evening, with all of the early preparations that go on and peaceful family time at home tomorrow. And of course good football (or afternoon nap)!

It was good to talk to you on Thanksgiving Day, but it was still sad to know we couldn't be together. You are always in our thoughts and prayers and we can't wait to see you for Christmas. Love you and miss you, Mama and Daddy
p.s. I am so thankful you have wonderful people to be with - God bless all of you in Guatemala
