Leadership meetings

Last week, I had a couple of visitors. William and Lukas are the 2 other members of the leadership team for Latin Link Central America, and they were visiting me here in Guatemala. We had some great times, catching up with all that´s going on in Guatemala, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Cuba - and did some planning for our annual conference that is coming up in February. I also had chance to introduce them to some of our key partners here in Guatemala and visit some of the Striders.
 Whilst we were at home... this was a typical scene. As they live in Nicaragua and Costa Rica, they felt the cold here in my house in Guatemala. So we often had business meetings - with Lukas in his woolly hat, William still wearing his coat and drinking as much coffee as possible.!


Their visit also managed to coincide with one of our regular monthly prayer meetings in Guatemala. With the new Striders who have arrived, we were quite a big group - even with a couple of people away. It´s always good to meet as a team - to share experiences between those who have been around a while, those who have just arrived ... and a few who are in the process of preparing to leave Guatemala to serve elsewhere.
And as with all good teams, it does help, if you´re just a little bit crazy!
