It is the last night at the mission house and I have mixed emotions about leaving. On the one hand there is still so much left to do. The country of Guatemala still has tremendous basic needs: physical needs and emotional needs. It is hard to leave a place that you have invested in; a place you have poured your heart into. However, our lives are not in Guatemala. God has placed us in Wilmington, Rosmond, Atlanta, and Athens for a reason. We are called to serve others and love others in our daily lives. My prayer for myself and the members of this team is that we would continue what we started here in Guatemala. I pray our lives reflect the love of Jesus everyday, that we love the poor in spirit, that we have compassion on the suffering, and that we constantly seek out opportunities to serve others.
What a privilege to serve the God of the Universe, the creator of all. May the passion he has instilled in me to love his children continue to burn in my heart until the day I reside with him in heaven.
Love,
McCall
This is a picture of my with a little baby that was laying on a rock crying while her mother was washing clothes in a stream. I had to pick her up, it was impossible to leave her there crying. When I picked her up she stopped crying, but then I had to put her back down...
