we got a call tonight here at the mission home from the guys that are already that the other mission house that i am supposedly moving into. and they were saying how it was not looking like it was going to work out very well. the whole atmosphere is not the nice guatemalan family one. and apparently the dad there doesnt even speak spanish as well as we thought he was supposed to. also they have other missionaries and groups coming in and out all the time apparently, so we would not be alone, and there is english all the time. this is not the desired atmosphere for living 'immersed' in another country/language. so it sounds like they are going to try to get something changed for us, but they will have to find four more families willing to host us for three weeks.
apparently what happened with the situation was that when the bosses contacted the connection in chiquimula (a pastor there) he was supposed to find families or something for us, but apparently he just hooked us up with this mission house.... sort of the wrong idea.
anyway, whether finding a new house works out or not, God has me here for another month, and he will work in whatever way is pleasing to him... im sure now that it is nothing like what any of us were expecting!
so anyway, this is definitely the last post for today, and hopefully the last post until at least the weekend!
keep praying that we who are trying to figure this stuff out will have a God glorifying attitude and that God would work everything out!
